I get them in my breeder tanks and it's great for the fry.

Hmm, its really helping out with the biological cycle... Noticed them,more coming out of sponge filter during night time. Still, clearing out now and them to keep their count in control..

yep.. planeria.. cut out the left over food they will die off.. harmless to fish.. BUT is a sign that too much waste is in tank.. and could back to get ya later.. with water quality
