When i got home today i noticed what looked like tiny white worms crawling on the glass inside my tank.
What are these things how did they get there and how do i get rid of them?

If it makes any difference i brought home 2 new clown loaches over the weekend, could have they came from the fish shop?

Cheers

Hope this helps. If you type "white worms" into the search forum thing at the top you will get lots of answers.

Take half of your water out ya tank the use a gravel cleaner to suck up the worms. An dont feed your oscar any pellets or food cause if they get in your oscars gills or mouth it can infect your oscar.Or you can get a magnet tank cleaner an keep knocking them off so the filter can catch them.

I had this same problem you can go to my discussions to find more answers also

the interesting thought would be what really causes this kinda worms...

One cause can be overfeeding!

you mean over feeding of live food right??? what if one is on pellets

I mean over feeding at all, pellets or live food... Click on that link up above, Necro gives great info about this!
