White long thing ?

[drsteve2001]

I just noticed today there is a white long snake looking thing on the back of my glass. It is long about 4 inches long zig zaged like a slinky? Cant really get a pic it is low behind my rocks. Should i scape it off,, it looks like i could

I just had a feeling when I saw this title.....and your name that we were not referring to you in general

On a more serious note....it is probably a planaria...it's a type of worm, and it is harmless
I believe they are from over feeding

It sounds like eggs. Does it move?

that was it....must have gotten eaten
by the way meowzer we were discussing skimmers and now that aqua c sent me something to restrict the flow from the max-jet 1200 my skimmer is working beautifully... no bubbles. It must have been to much power.

I wonder if they have one for the Octopus????
what did they send you?

it connects to the input and is basically a ball check valve....just turn the little handle and it closes the hole that the max jet is pushing the water thru...any valve that u could hook up from a hardware store would work

Got a pic...LOL....Maybe my husband can fix something up for me

even before i got the valve i wasn't getting bubbles, it just want giving me any gunk just wet foam
