white string like worm id please

manvey · 03/21/2009, 05:22 PM

I recently discovered there are dozens of white worms in one corner of my tank. They are tiny string like worms, in white-gray color. they don't have any arms or feet. Harf of the body is hidden under the sand, only about 1cm of the body is above the sand. They slowly wave their body, seems looking for food.

I have searched the site, they are not like Spaghetti worms to me since they don't have any tenticles.

I am worried they are becoming an infestation in my tiny 14g tank. Any thought please?

It is so hard to take a pic, because their color is so like the sand, except they move slowly.

Thank you!

Is a good ID site. See if you can find it there. As you know a picture would help but you know that

I am not sure if you could "imagine" the worm from my pic, there are a lot of them on the sand, but cannot be captured.
