i just noticed there are tiny white things crawling on the inside glass of my fahaka tank....they are oblong in shape....any ideas?

I did a little search on it.
here's the link:

does that sound like them at all?

Most likely planaria, totally harmless, cut down on feeding and they will go with water changes.

its a freshwater tank so does that mean that article doesn't apply? i hope its just planeria.

[Jase]

honestly, I would go with whatever Hilly says, because I'm still pretty new to all this,

[mpk172]

lol...thanks though....i like to hear everybody's opinion.

Yeah its usaully an indicator if decaying food in the tank or the need for more regular or bigger water changes. Adress those things and they will disapear

[Jase]

ya, so just tell them to go away. works every time
