kill worms

Hi,

my crs give birth to quite a number of young, but I found that there is also have some worm crawling at the glass.

Is there anyway or medicine to kill the worms? I caught some and pour hot water for coffee to it but they dun die.


Thanks

Hmm...I used to have them in my tank too.
But I think the worms will not harm the shrimps.
Just feed less, I guess its the leftover food that allows the worms to breed.
Btw, how often you feed the shrimps?

try to lessen your feeding.. and manually suck out the worms with a airtube.. anw.. they wont harm your shrimplet.. good luck!

Google on 'planeria' and see if it is the worm you talking about.

There's no guarantee that planeria won't attack shrimps or shrimplets. One of the best way is manual removal with bait trap constantly.

So what kind of fish will eat them.

I don't think should add fishes to eat the worms, cause the fishes might eat the shrimps and shrimplets as well
