Just today my clears walls of my aquarium have been suddenly flooded with small white-transparent worms 3/4 inch long. I have a few suspects in mind, planaria and detritus worms. Could some one tell me what they might be? Also my Clown knife fish seemed to be rubbing it's side a little and dosen't come meet me at the edge of the glass, as it usually does. :nilly:
 
Probably nematodes. Treat them like any opportunistic population and reduce feeding.
 
Any idea why? I feed 3 times a day - 6 pellets a day. The Clown knife dosen't let the food float around, he just chomps it up. I can't imagine what happened. Is it because he secretly stored poop? :grinno:
 
Actually, there could be a pile of mulm somewhere in your system feeding them. Usually under decoration or in a corner somewhere.
