I went on ma holiday for about 3 days and left my green aro with to my maid but when I came back I saw some white worms(about 1cm long) wriggling in my tank but I believe it's not anchor.

Sorry I don't have any cam with me right now so I can't take any picture, Can someone please tell what it is and how to cure my tank..

Thank you in advance:)
 
:) I can't thank you enough Chaitika, I googled for pictures and turn out that they are planaria worms. I'm so glad that it's harmless to my aro:) I'll clean my sum and trying to dispost of uneaten foods in my tank.
Thank you again Chaitika..
 
I have the same, and my fish eat them some time.

You're welcome. :)
 
yup planaria, try putting in some platties, they tend to love to eat them, them and small cichlids, although i feel like if u got a nice big arowana in there that neither of these two will last very long haha
 
I had them all over my glass on one tank, I added a pleco from another tank, one day, and they are all gone!
