Any one have any ideas what these white things are on my glass and rock? They don’t seem to be moving. Noticed them yesterday in my 125 gallon , but there all over in my 15 gallon. Hard to get a good picture since there so small. Thanks!

spirorbid worms. Harmless and usually fade as the tank matures. Just scrape them off the glass if they are obstructing your view. Otherwise, you can leave them be.

Unfortunately no. All you can do is regulate their population by not allowing alot of extra food to be in the tank.

Know what these things are also? On my 125. By the way the 125 is over a month old ( I believe its done cycling ammonia, nitrite, nitrate all 0) and just transferring things over from my 40.

Are they something to worry about? Never seen in my 40.
