I have lots of tiny white worms about 1/16" long and about as thin as a human hair all over a 10 gallon (on the glass) where I have a mother caca and about 15 fry on one side, and another on the other side with about 50 eggs.
The worms are definitely alive and doing well, but I don't know if that is good or bad.
I think they may have been introduced when I added some unfiltered/unboiled rainwater into the tank about a month ago.
Do you think the cacas will eat them? Will they cause any problems to the fish? What the heck are they?
I don't want to move the fish unless they are in danger, and I am concerned if I remove them and clean the tanks that I will kill the fry/lose the eggs. Obviously the most important are the Orange Blaze Cacatuoides. By the way, I also still have a male on the side with the female with eggs.
Thanks for any response.
Randy
