Question Little Red Worms in pond filter.

[Robbwilder]

I saw a couple threads on these by using the SEARCH feature and wanted to make sure I did some RESEARCH before asking a question soo...

Did anyone ever find out what those little red worms were? I have them in my ponds too.

Cool... Then I dont have to worry about them then ... I guess thats why the pleco managed to get in the filter and was probably eating them then ..
