No one recognizes the stuff on my puffer? Even any general suggestions? Like should I do some water changes and add some salt?

Actually the first one is done uploading now:

Two of my three pea puffers have something on their bodies that are clearly not good. Though they seem to be different afflictions, they happened around the same time so my guess is bad water quality or general shared stresses is likely to be at the root of it.
One (a girl, her name is Dusty)...
It is really interesting! But also.... a little concerning. I don't like not knowing what it is.

Here's the better video. Please watch this and help me identify this thing!

Okay, I bought some blackworms from Pet World (I know, first mistake). And I noticed these big white blobby things in with the worms. When rinsing them out, I noticed one of them started to move. Um. What?
I tried to find information online but all I could find fitting my description were...
I feel very stupid for not actually posting the link to the video. :c

It's a freshwater tank and those two are about 6 to 7mm long. Upon closer examination I noticed a BAJILLION speck-sized babies (I assume) in there.
That's question number one: What are they? Question number two is can I (and if so, how can I) raise them to feed my pea puffers if they are indeed...
Sorry for the late reply.
I think the temperature was exactly 79.
For the record, (hence the late reply) the ram is now dead. I did take some pictures of his sad, colorless body in hopes to verify any possible signs of infectious disease (or anything else to worry about spreading) but I've...
The problem with moving the farlowella is I have nowhere to put her. I've been looking for a 29 gallon tank, but I don't have quite enough money for a straight retail tank at the moment. I actually had to relocate the guppies because they tried eating him a couple times.
He still has the black...
It's also probably worth noting that after the water changes didn't seem to be helping much, I backed off for a little while (except for my weekly routine) because I didn't want to stress him more than I needed to. Since he was already afraid of me enough to hide whenever I came to feed them, I...
The tank is only 15 gallons.
The other fish in the tank are three guppies and a farlowella. (I've been meaning to relocate the farlowella because I believed the tank is too small for her. I now also believe that she is too big for the tank, in terms of bioload; I figured that could be partly...
He started turning black a while ago. I heard it meant bad levels, so I started doing 50 percent water changes daily with no results (fish or levels).
I also added a cave to hide in since I just trimmed back his favorite garden and he seemed way more skiddish (specifically afraid of me) than...
Huh. Well, I wouldn't know how old he was unfortunately. I just got him about a week ago.
Just curious, how did you find that out about your guppy?
Also, that should mean my other fish are probably safe, right?
