nabokovfan87 Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Looks like detritus worms. What else is in the tank. How is your filtration setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nabokovfan87 Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 They will likely eat them. No real issues. Just try to be a bit vigilant with the substrate siphoning and you'll slowly get rid of them. Adding additional air will help. Welcome to the forums also!

Hally M. Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 They look more like Planaria I would say. Detritus worms are much thinner and longer than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
