hi all
i've had some tyre tracks for about 3 yrs now i got 3 of them , one is about 15' the other 2 an inch or two smaller. They seem to quite enjoy each others company and get along ok , there in a bigish tank 6'.16 deep and 19 wide
its got loads of bog wood etc and a network of eel tunnels in the sand substrate , the plant roots hold it all together. well this morning i fed the oscars(tank mates) and as usual they chewed everything up and it fell through the gills as usual , anyway in a moment of boredom i was looking to see what the eat to waste ratio was and as i squatted down i saw the area below a piece of bogwood in a void below the substrate, were big eel lives was absolutly swarming with what appears to be about 1000 baby eels ? they are clear to very pale white colour and about 1/2' long , to small for a pic yet but i will try , are these eels ? or do i have some sort of infestation of worms ? strange eh , ive never noticed them before and was under the impression these things dont breed in tanks any one help me ?
