Red Worms

[silversides]

About 5 little red worms has shown up in my tank.
They float around and land on on stuff and move around then start floating around again. I have fish ,shrimp, lobster, crabs and snails in the tank.(125 gal)

I have the little red worms too. Do you have live rock in the tank??

 

[silversides]

No this tank does not have lr yet.

 

[malibu599]

Wow! I don't know?? Was your substrante new or used?

 

[silversides]

New. Also the tank is about a year old and this is the first time i saw them.

I have seen them before, though I don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing. My friend's tank was filled by these worms. They were everywhere, some even attach themselves to lr. Well as long as they don't bother any inhabitants in your tank, they're fine, but if you're just annoyed by their pressence then get rid of them .

Probably just a bristleworm. If they arent too big they are alright to be in your tank.

Possibly flatworms if they are every where.....not good.

get an arrow crab or orchid psuedu whatever it will take care of the worms.they are not fun when their bigger and there quicker so it will be hard to get them out
