tiny white worms?

[MikenDanielle]

I just took a look at my 10g FW that houses one red eye puffer and a couple of pond snails and realized that there are about 50 tiny white worms of some kind on the glass. I cant get pic's because tehy're too small. Just wondering if anyone has any idea of what they might be.

what are yourwater parameters?

how often are you doing water changes?

 

[MikenDanielle]

Weekly water changes. Not sure on the params right now as money is tight and my test kit ran out. Are they very harmful to my puffer?

Those might be baby snails with out the shell because in my 10g i have some snails and everytime that i find a batch of eggs the next day they are alot of this worm thingys you say but then after a few they they dissapear and i find alot of baby snails hope this helps...

Keep up on those water changes. How much are you feeding?

 

[MikenDanielle]

i feed him either a small piece of shrinp, abut hte size of a dime or half a mussel. I take it out after about an hour so i don't think over feeding is my issue. Could be baby snails, but i've been dreeding snails for about a month now in another tank & haven't noticed anything like this.

I think they are probably to small to be captured by our camera but we will give it a shot (no pun intended) tomorrow.
