NanoRox Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 My tank is 4 months old next week. As you can see here, I am seeing an ever increasing number of little white "pimples" growing on the back of the tank. I think these are little worms so I am wondering what they are for sure. I am thinking of scraping them off somehow. Quote Link to comment
sublunary Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Google "spirorbid worm" and see if it fits. Quote Link to comment

MrJoel Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Those little guys are all over my back wall. They also show up in / on my pumps. Iluckily they scrape off pretty easy. Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I notice these seem to occur in newer tanks while maturing but then they seem to slow down in growth. 1 Quote Link to comment
