What to do if you have small worms (1/4 inch or so) in your discus fish aquarium... these are a type of flat worm that feeds on excess organic matter in the tank. They are harmless to the fish and are not of a major concern. To cut their numbers substantially, add a group of Corydoras catfish to the tank to help cleanup excess food. Also increase your water changes to reduce the bioload. If the Worms persists add 1 cup of salt per 100 gallons and this will greatly reduce their numbers. Loaches and Botias also will help eat these unwelcome visitors.
