Tiny Black Worms

Recommended Posts

Today while digging around in the tank I came across these tiny black worms.  They are about 1/4" long, non-segmented and living in the sand.  I sucked a few up while house keeping, but would like to get an id before going old school gvl]] on them.

 

Thanks

sounds like nematodes, if they get out of hand ive seen them attack crustaseans during a molt. they go for the soft tissue. but we do need a picture before making a certain call on them

I tried to take a quick pic of them the other day but they are roughly the same  length and width of an eyelash.  This made for a blurry pic.  I can give it a shot again
