I noticed a red spot below my 5inch goldfish's eye but I didn't think anything of it because the new fish was picking on the other one so I just thought it was a "battle scar" but then I noticed a short white string coming from it so I did my research and came to the conclusion it was anchor worm. So I went to my local pet store and they gave me coppersafe to treat my aquarium. I also managed to take my fish out of the tank and try to remove the worm with tweezers. I didn't fully remove it, it kind of like broke off?? I'm not sure if it will grow back into the full size worm or if that will kill the worm... Any thoughts?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16235361902398970394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-242573161962665005.post-8586752824351831222016-02-24T04:27:52.810+02:002016-02-24T04:27:52.810+02:00How to treat the entire aquarium??How to treat the entire aquarium??Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814717091908038858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-242573161962665005.post-79032231348217714282013-09-10T19:03:10.340+03:002013-09-10T19:03:10.340+03:00thanx this worked....

Although some of them, like brittle worms are useful to the aquatic life balance.
