ethan29nano Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 probally pods , no need to worry , do they look like they have antennas? Or do they look like a snakes toung , which are flatworms which are bad....Give a better description , there could be hundreds of possibilities.... Link to comment
wxnerd Posted March 13, 2006 Author Share Posted March 13, 2006 ok well i asked my girlfriend and she quoted they look like little maggots. they do have "feelers" that go out. I almost think they look like tiny white ants. i attached a picture to try and help out. Thanks, todd Link to comment
andre Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Small mysid shrimp possibly? Can't really tell, but that's my guess. Link to comment

Raise ISO to 800 or 1600 and take again or better yet place camera on some books (Or tripod) and use the timer feature at same ISO. If it were me, I wouldnt add fish for at least another week until I sorted this out. Link to comment
