Where to start?
2 Days ago I finally set up my 55 gallon tank and moved the contents of my 10 gallon (7 long fin danios and 3 ottos) to the new 55 gallon (with 1 filter from the 10 since I had 2 filters running on it anyway). Anywho, after pulling everything out of the tank to get the danios (who are faster than god almighty) I didn't really pay much attention to the tank.
Anyway, yesterday, I was looking at my empty 10 gallon and noticed I have some baby MTS (woot..will do great in my 55 gallon with sand, but they are still so small I am afraid to grab them at the moment). I also noticed i have some nematodes (little white worms...GROSS). Not worried about them. After staring at the tank for awhile I actually noticed that I have about 30-40 baby fish stuck to my glass as well
erv: Since they are sticking to the glass I am assuming they are ottos. I definitly know they are NOT planaria because i caught one swimming earlier today and it didn't undulate or anything that would make me think it is a worm or parasite, so the only fish it could be are the danios or the ottos. I am assuming danios would be more free swimming and not stuck to my glass like that (I notice a stripe down them as well, black in color) so I am assuming they are otos.
What am I to do? I am really afraid to clean the tank because these babies are really little 1/4 an inch or so.
Hints? Suggestions (I cant do pics, no camera (boo).
