normal, up the changes. You could be over feeding. the amount small fish need to live well is very very very small....hope this helps.

ohh were those on the fish or just swimming around those little guys and all those other criters live in the gravel there in there because of extra food and when the water needs to be changed they come out and swim around try feeding less and higher water changes
