So, I found a dead (or so I thought) blue cherry shrimp in my nano with a few red worms coming out of the substrate around it. I knew about the worms although I'm not sure what they are. I think they came in the roots of some plants. Tubifex?
Are the worms harmful to the shrimp? They dart in the gravel when I get near them and I can only rarely suck them out when doing gravel vacs.
Back to the shrimp, not sure what was wrong with it. It was keeled over so I thought it was dead and used some tongs to pulls out. Of course when I put it in my cup to dispose I see a few legs moving. I doubt she'll make it because I probably punched her with the tongs.
