[APD] Re: Red worms in my filter -- good, bad, or ugly?




If it can change in length, it is an annelid and is probably a tubifex. If it does not change in length, and is thicker than a tubifex and the same thickness throughout its length, then it is a blood worm, the larva of a midge. Midges don't bite. So, whatever it is, it is good and only ugly if you are prejudiced.
