[kingflowerhorn]

I have noticed a tiny white worms on my tank glass what is this?
Are they harmfull to my fishes
if so then how to eliminate this stuff from my tank

They are most likely planaria worms, which are a result of poor tank maintenance/over feeding.

more water changes, better filtration, less uneaten food.

they are harmless.

P.S. when you want an ID on here a picture is advised, but this question is posted a lot so I'm going with what is usually the case.

This happened to me recently. While I try to keep my tank spotless my fish threw up his food still mostly whole and it got lodged somewhere I could not see easily and created the issue.

Easy remedy is heavier salt dose for a day with good water movement then a solid water change. They're harmless but can get out of hand if not treated, it's when they are breeding in filtration that the damages in the long run occurs.

Or get a betta or gourami, depending on the other stock in your tank. They'll eat them.
