I have recently set up a shrimp tank and out of nowhere, a week before the shrimp were ment to be bought I got every underwater critter there is! Its an aquarium disease! I have flat worms (LOTS, TOO), big pinky - white worms in my gravel, tiny sand size bugs on the glass and to top it all off, snails! Theres nothing in as its been fishless cycling but how do I get rid of them but most importantly, can my red cherry shrimp go in it yet?

Incase it helps, the plants are pogostemon, jungle val, anubias, java fern, amazon swords and java moss. The decor is a few rocks and a coconut shell. The tank it 3.70 us gallons.

HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek:
 
You probably got some stuff from the plants (the snails at the very least). Not sure what all the worms are and if they are disease not sure if the shrimp would be affected. Sorry, hopefully someone more knowledgeable will come along and help. Good luck.
