help! little bugs

[fishfun]

I have a bare bottom tank and just noticed tiny little white things crawling on the bottom and kind of swimming around. Can anyone help me? They are tiny white specs.

I have those in one of my tanks. No fish though.. Baby frogs. \

Hopefully not baby triops..

cool little things though..
eggs can survive out of water 100 + years...

i was gonna say they're planaria. Do they look like worms or bugs? caused by over feeding

depends how big they are. I've had planaria that are tiny specs that move.. You could be right tho. Just have to wait and see his reply

It could be a harmless pod of some sort

I would agree with you guys, I would say that I have been over feeding. How do I get rid of them?

water changes and cut down on feeding.

once there food is gone they will just die off and depending on the fish in the tank they will eat them.

Thanks for the help.

Are they kinda jumpy in their locomotion?
Are there any on top of the water?
Increase water changes fow awhile or cut back on feeding.
Better yet do both!
