it happens when you overfeed your fish. those worms are harmless, so do not worry about them. feed your fish a bit less then usual, do 20% WC twice a week, than you'll be fine

laughin rollin they are harmless...most tanks get them..they are called planaria worms...they come from left over food, over feeding, from dirty water, his poo...even when you clean tank 1 time a week, you may still have some.

I do have those planaria worms at moment, but i have gotten used to it lol because at first, i was so grossed out, puke was discusted to put my arm in there laughin rollin

PraziPro from Hakari is only the best medicine to kill the worm. I use it for every shipment coming. Check with Vanz, i give him 1 to try.
MAKE SURE DON'T OVER DOSE.
You can buy it from any fish store.
