White Worms
I am new to the list.
I am very worried about these very small white worms that I have in my
planted discus tank.
They are about 2 mm long, very small. Sometimes I see some that are,
maybe, 1/4 " long.
I see them on the glass sides of the aquarium. I have no gravel, so I see
them slithering along the bottom.
Does anybody know what they are?
The aquarium shop said that they were anchor worms, but I know
that can't be, because I read up on it.
I am suspecting that they are Pinworms or threadworms, but my
disease book does not go into detail so I am not sure.
What I want to know is---- what are they and are they harmful to my discus
and is so, how do I get rid of them.
Thanks in advance!
