I had those in my tank once, I never noticed my fish acting any different while they where there, but I'm not sure if they harm them or not. I do know that they are VERY hard to get rid of... I tried salt, water changes, buying fish to eat them, a million parasite medications... Nothing worked, hope you have better luck than me, mine came after I added a pleco to my tank
