View Full Version : strange looking worm

Since about a month ago, I've noticed while vacuuming the gravel a strange type of worm being sucked out.

I feed CBW and I have had leeches and snails...but this worm is nothing like I've ever seen. They are about the size of black worms and is red and flat and curls up when bothered. Sometimes I see it crawling across the glass like a snake and the fish won't even bother with them.

Can anyone shed some light into this mystery???

Thanks, Tom

Bristleworm?

Are they red and thin? Could these things be some kind of tapeworm?
