I have a tank in the balcony (actually a cooler
) where I soak my driftwood before using/trading it...
I have not changed the water for some weeks now... did not have the time... and I noticed today that there where little critters swimming... I am talking 3mm long, they have a head about 1mm in diameter, 1mm wide cylinder-like body, and what seems to be to tails perpendicular to the body about 1mm long very very thin... I am sure it is some kind of insect i do not think it is mosquito larvae... it must be something else...
Anyway, I took some fed them to my guppies and they seem to enjoy them... any clue if any of these critters may not be good for fish to eat?
When the guppies where trying to eat them, it seamed like the critters where stinging them with their tails... can this be possible? what are they? I do nothave my camera, I will try to post a picture later.
