Baby danios? They're easy to breed, just hard (for most) to raise. Lots of gunk in the filter is ideal food for baby fishies!

That is what I was thinking.. perhaps the Danio's scattered some eggs, after the cycle?

I doubt anyone else is big enough to breed.. but that's my guess.

I would use Seachems 'Stability' before Cycle or Stress Zyme, each one has pro's and con's, but Stability seems to be a good one.
 
I have used Fritz zyme #7 its a great BB.. anyways I have never herd of a situation like you got Kris
 
Dark, bigheaded, skinny bodies? 1/4"= long, congratulations papa! They sound like baby Giant dianos to me, I have had that happen a couple times to my tanks. Try to get a good look at one in a teaspoon with a magnifying glass. You might not be able to see the fins but at that size you should see it looking back at you. If so and you have a spare 5-10g tank around put em in their and feed them filter gunk until you can get some liquid fry food, throw some elodea in there too!
 
Yikes I hope they're not mosquito larvae... I doubt they are... I'll find a magnifying glass. I bought a cheap net breeder for now, and am going to buy a 10 gallon, filter, and heater within the next week or 2... Theres atleast 25 of these guys, and I'll have to find homes for them after they grow out. I'll keep the 10 gallon as a quarantine tank after that... I need a QT tank anyway! Thanks for the help guys.
