What I see is a healthy ecosystem with detritus worms, snails, and cyclops. Parasites are rarely observed separate from their hosts. Your photos look just like what my cherry shrimp tanks look like, that is full of life because there is no top predator like a fish to graze on everything.

These are called cyclops. They are a good thing to have in an aquarium. The are mostly treasured by fishkeepers as one of the choicest of live fishfoods available. Are these the 'parasites'?

Here is a 'Snowy Lakes Caddis Fly Larva' Looks similar. Here is the lifecycle of caddisflies:

I just found this one while looking for pond related photos. I like the 3 different layers of the water, the earth (me photographing), and the sky.

As shallow as 2 feet for the large aquarium overflow pond that has cherry shrimp year round: Up to 4 feet deep on the bigger one with rice fish and Daphnia in it. Before rice fish: After rice fish: Daphnia:

I have photos somewhere of my wife and youngest son both inside my 500 gallon aquarium changing out the substrate. -

What is a good way to kickstart beneficial bacteria
Daniel replied to Chiclid addict's topic in General Discussion
When I start a new tank, it is always with the water from an established aquarium and plants from an established aquarium. For me that seems to bring enough beneficial bacteria so that the new aquarium can support fish from day one. -
