Hello,

I noticed this morning my fish tank has hundreds of these super tiny microscopic white worms stuck to the glass that move very slowly. They almost look like cotton fibers. I shined my flashlight in the side a few of them sqwiggle around in the water too. Very very tiny.

I googled this and I'm thinking their ditritus worms and this can be caused by over feeding?

some info, I have a 20 gallon long with 1 electric blue jack Dempsey. I feed her a small pinch of fish food daily.

Below I'll attach am image I took today.


is there a product I can buy to put in the water to kill these off?

Any info will be helpful. Thanks!
