Bugs?

Sat, 04/18/2009 - 06:49 — paulmer87

Hey all.
The other day I noticed these near microscopic bugs on the sides of my tank. I look closely and they seem to be all over the place. What use to be bubbles are now a bunch of these floating bugs(?) which periodically stick to the sides and crawl around. The water still looks clear the quality still opitimal. Temperature is at 28 c. They don't seem to be bothering my fish but is this a cause of concern and has anyone gotten this before?

Re: Bugs?

there are some very small worms that come when you over feed. they are white and harmless. it isn't obvious what they are unless you look at them very closely. small fish will eat them.

Re: Bugs?

Have u fed them live bloodworms....

If bloodworms are not consumed within a day or two they turn into mosquito larvae and finally fly out of the tank

If you are feeding live food, do it in a very less quantity.
