Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hi,
I have a small (6 Gal) freshwater tank with several tetras and guppies. Set it up about year ago. No problems.
Several weeks ago I have noticed appearance of very small bugs in my tank. They look like small beige-colored grains of sands, floating in the water, covering my shells and swarming in the gravel. I have no idea were they came from. I do not have plants or snails, just fish, gravel, some shells and plastic ornaments. Right now may aquarium is swarming with, almost clouds of these things - thousands, tiny, round. They do not seem to harm the fish and fish seems uninterested in them.
Several days ago I treated water with Coppersafe from Mardel. Suppose to kill bugs and parasites. The only change I noticed after the treatment is that these little guys are thriving and seem to be much more of them now.
Any ideas? What is this? How to kill it?
