What is this odd looking "worm" in snail tank

flatworm. harmless, and some fish will eat them. indicates that your tank maintenance may not be up to par. increase water changes and gravel vacs.
 
kk it didnt seem to be harming anything, this is a little 5.5gal snail tank up in my room for only blue ramshorns so it doesnt get the same attention as my fish tanks lol
 
Usually means over feeding. No worries about them though. Like said above gravel vac and water changes.
 
Thanks guys, yea its hard to guage how much to feed as its snails only but there are a decent number in there... luckily its bare bottom so easy to vac up junk I might pluck it out and feed it to my 75gal
 
I use a turkey baster to get them out. They will overpopulate your tank in time.
