White Worm

[wifey of axelfaz]

Currently have some white worm on fish tank glass. No bigger than a few millimetre's they are really tiny.

1. What causes this?

2. How do we get rid of them?

3. Will they affect the fish as they seem to be eating them?

Any help would be appriciated ....

PS I can not post a pic as they are to small :(

I had this before ...

My problem was because I did too much water changes and these worms comes from the filter

After a few hours they were gone, back to the filter I guess.

No effect to the fish.

HTH

I think theyre called planaria???? I thought it was a sign of overfeeding the fish or something
