Aquarium Advice Regular
In my 40 gal. breeder tank which houses a pair of Blue crayfish I recently noticed tons of miniscule "things" swarming around. They are too small to see exactly what they are. They remind me of those flying gnats you see clustered above the grass in the summer time. The only thing I feed the crays is algae wafers, frozen beef heart and frozen blood worms. There are hundreds of these things "swimming' in clusters above the gravel but nowhere near the two filter intakes. I have a HOB filter on the right rated for 70 gallons and a Duetto 100 on the left and they stay well between the two. I haven't noticed the crays even acknowledging their presence but I don't know what the hell they are an I am concerned they may be harmful in some way. BTW, my pair has mated twice in the past month but no eggs have been seen yet. Any ideas, opinions or suggestions are welcome and appreciated.
