So for some reason after almost 18 months of being setup all sorts of things are popping up in my tank. No real new additions in 6 months except for some hermit crabs yesterday. Now I'm looking and these worm like things are everywhere anyone know what they are? Yes I know I need a macro lens

Just saw one crawl into my snail and my snail isn't moving now

I cant make them out that well but it looks like its made up of segments. Does it have 4 antenna coming from it' head, I am thinking tiny Dorvilleidae worms. Pretty harmless if thats what they are.

It's definitely made out of segments and it moves more like an acordian then a rubber band (if that makes sense) I'm trying to wait for a big one to come out I saw one that was almost an inch and a half long but couldn't get my camera in time.

Look up epitoke and see if it matches..

I would think Epitoke for the swimming one.

I would think Epitoke for the swimming one.

I did and it says that just means a baby worm. I got some better pictures today, found one crawling on the glass.

Those are Dorvilleidae worms, harmless little worms.
