I have these wierd little white thread-like worm looking things in my tank and cant seem to get rid of them. My fish seem to love eating them and they arent bothering the fish at all. Ive given the tank several water changes, and a couple of complete overhauls... and still when I fill it back up, more of these things come out of the filter. Could they be brine shrimp larvae? Also theres a fine dust that gets severely kicked up when doing a gravel cleaning. The temp. in the tank is 77 F and pH is around 7.5.
I read that occasionally brine shrimp will hatch if the parameters are right, but this is a fresh water tank, not a salt water. Anyone have any clue what these are? Could they be inside the filter cartridge? Why dont they get any bigger? (they are about half a centimeter at most)
