worms

I just wanted to no if anyone has seen this before or have any idea what these are.? They don't move so I think, but I noticed one of them on a rock months ago and now there allover my rocks. I just want to make sure it's not a type of worm that could harm my fish bc my arowana has been acting...

Hello so my one foot arowana just stopped eat for no reason it's only been two days but he normally will eat twice a day. He seems skittish in the tank as well. It's not like he doesn't have room it's a 300 gallon tank! But there are 9 angel fish in there with him my thoughts were maybe he's...

Is it food? Is it worms? Injury? Appeared overnight. Bichir is eating and behaving normally. Water change weekly. Had him a little over a year since baby, he is now 13 inches. See photo attached. P.S. I grow out algae for sides and back of tank so it's not neglected and dirty.

Hello! This is my first post on the forum, so sorry if I don't follow any guidelines - let me know and I'll fix the post right away. I'm making this post on behalf of my friend, who's been having some health issues with the Teugelsi bichir in his 75-gallon tank. Recently (over the past month or...

Hey All, I was cleaning out the HOB filter boxes and after I put everything back together I noticed 1 small worm. Semi clear and less than 1/2” long. Tank is a 55 gallon, been set up, stocked, and running for 6 months no issue. Any idea why one lone worm would appear? I have not added stock to...

I'm getting concerned about my Dovii & really need some experienced advice here. Sorry for the long post but I want to give as much detail as possible to give a clear 'bigger' picture of the situation & hopefully get back some detailed suggestions or answers. I've had him for a few weeks now...

I have a lot of transparent white dots like jelly on my aquarium glass and spawning slate which are only visible on glass while doing water change and once water is added, they are invisible. Is it harmful to fish and if yes how to get rid of it? They are not nematodes or other common worms. I...

Which is better for providing the occasional treat of live food for several species of larger fish (oscars, clown knife, bichirs, Barbs..etc) and a more consistent dietary supplement for a red hi fin wolf fish? Starting thoughts are feeder tank will look more attractive and interesting in the...

Hi, I have a 12 inch Rivulatus in a 90 gallon tank with 2 plecos. The tank is being filtered by 2 Aquaclear 110s. I'm using a 250 watt aqueon pro heater set to about 78° Fahrenheit. Lots of big water changes and I'm currantly feeding (or at least trying to feed) Fluval bug bites pleco and...

Hey all, just noticed that my Golaith african tiger fish’s dorsal fin had these strands either hanging or attached to them. They were not there the night before. Wondering if anyone knows what they are/how to treat this. No other fish in the tank has this issue.

I have a 20 gallon tank. I had an eel catfish for over a year. A few days ago I added a rope fish and a snail. Unfortunately both fish passed rather quickly. As I removed them I noticed white spots on both, which from a little research suggests worms? I have no other fish in the tank except the...

Hey Guys I have a completely see through clear looking worm in my hospital tank. I have been treating a sick paratalapia Cichlid with an unknown issue for weeks now doing seperate treatments of melafix, paragaurd, Kanaplex and salt. Oddly enough the filter just stopped working yesterday but I...

Hi, I was doing a water change just now... When I finished pouring new water in I noticed something floating/wriggling... It looks like a tiny white hair but it was wriggling like crazy... Then I noticed several more... Should I do something? All the fish seem fine but I am worried... Although I...

I just set up a new 40b over the weekend. Everything is new, tank, canister, glass canopy, cichlid substrate, ect. Only thing I bought used were little caves I found in a dry goods box at LFS for cheap. Also bought 2 live plants. Tanks running 3 days and I see these tiny little things growing on...

Hello all, I've recently discovered that Ive got some sort of worm thriving in my aquarium gravel. I don't think they are harmful to the fish but I dont want them in my tank cause I think its been turning some of the fish into picky eaters. I started noticing them a couple months back and to...

One of the best ways to improve the growth rate of newborn fish is to give them ample supplies of healthy live foods. Microworms are a great choice for feeding small fry. These roundworms are a free-living (non-parasitic) nematode that is also known as the sour paste nematode. They are very easy...

I thought that it would be fun, though a bit scary, to hand-feed worms to my 8 inch long Electric Blue Jack Dempsey. He is everyone's favorite fish, but he's a bit of a bully. So, he lives in a tank by himself because he eats anything that goes in with him. It's a great video that I am sure you...

In this professionally produced, high definition video, we will see the species Polypterus delhezi in action feeding on nightcrawlers. This is one of the best polypterus videos on the internet. These are incredibly intelligent and beautiful fish. Highly recommended. Enjoy ...
