BAT Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Hi All, i was doing a gravel vac and water change and i saw this thing clinging to my tube? It would elongate and then scrunch up. And rather quickly. Is it a detritus worm? A leech? Something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppysnail Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 (edited) I can’t really see it well can you put it in a dish with a few drops of water? Will make id easier. Scrunching edit to add movement could possibly be leech but not definitive Edited February 19, 2022 by Guppysnail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Difficult to tell going of the colour and the way you said it moved possible leech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainbowfh Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 That is an Asian Leech! They often end up in aquariums through added plants. They are deadly to shrimp, snails, and baby fish fry. I hope you were able to get rid of it or any others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
