Paratore Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) Show us a pic there are lots of different worms. Some bad and some good. My guess would be bristle worms. With are pretty harmless but some people don't like them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited December 27, 2016 by Paratore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertareef Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Well if it looks like this one you may have a problem https://youtu.be/3H4J5QDQeA4Argh! Not the bobbit worm! Those things creep me out. And yeah, if you happen to have a bunch of those I would say bad with a capital B. At least for your fish.

pledosophy Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Most worms are fairly harmless depending on what your keeping. If you can get a picture of the worm it will confirm. Usually posts about scary worms are just bristleworms which are fine in a tank with probably well over 95% of what most people in the hobby keep as a pet. Got a pic?
