I hope someone can tell me what the heck this worm thing is. I have done some searching, but it doesn't look like anything I found any pictures of so far(nematodes, planaria).
I discovered that these same worms are also showing up in a tub of drinking water we have outside for the animals, so now I'm freaked out thinking they are in our water somehow!!
The tank they showed up in has nothing in it yet and was just setup a few days ago after being in storage for a few months. So far I haven't seen any in the established tank I have with fish in it, but they would likely be eaten quickly in there I'd assume.
They seem to go back and forth from the gravel, then up to the surface, then back again most of the time. Sometimes they glide along the glass, but not very often. When they swim up and down they kind of "flick" their bodies, then stretch out when they are resting.
Any clues are greatly appreciated! Thanks
