Well my guppy has been acting up for about 3/4 days now, he's breathing rapidly, seems to have no strength at times and is also bloated . All my other fish seem to be catching it too as their breathing is getting quicker. I bought the guppy along with the other two corys 10 days ago and they were fine. I do water changes every 5 days and give the tank a good vac every 10, although my friends have been feeding them in the morning for me (has stopped this morning) and may have been feeding them too much. I have to scrub the glass every 2/3 days due to the algae (it sits opposite a window) and have never seen what I seen last night. The light had been off for a matter of hours and I turned the light back on to check up on the guppy as he seemed worse but I automatically noticed a worm crawling up the side of the glass next to him.. I looked around the tank quickly and there was about 6 of the same size and a few baby ones... Although as the light went on they started to hide in the gravel or a few headed up towards the light as if they were going out of the water. I managed to snap a quick picture of one, the seem white with a little orange bit in them, I'm worried that's what is wrong with my fish. (Picture below it's algae that's around the worm and also a video of my guppy)
What are these? Do they effect my fish? If not what is up with my fish?
Another question is how do I get rid of them!! And what do I treat my fish with? Many thanks.
