infusoria culture with worms

[spongebobson]

I was checking my infusoria (paramecium) culture and I saw dozens of tiny white worm looking things. :?
What it could be? I been using water from my fish tank as a medium for the paramecium and baby powder milk as food.

Planaria. I do not know how they will impact your infusoria but they might prevent a good crop.

 

[spongebobson]

would a betta fry eat the planaria?

 

[TankGirl]

I would say yes, they would, if they are large enough to eat BBS.

there is a third thing in the paramecium culture...it looks like a paramecium with 2 legs but it is twice bigger than a paramecium and moves really fast. what it could be?

These might be cyclops, which can culture out in a paramecium culture, but they are said to be dangerous to fry. Don't have experience with them myself. I'd hesitate with them in there.
