i have those as well, i hate them to bits, they creep me out. I don't recommend this but i bought 3 small baby rosy barbs to eat them up and it worked. 2 became axie dinner in one night, the other lasted a week or so. It helped teh problem alot though. I suppose you could shift your axie to a holding tank adn put heaps of little fish in there to do a clean up and then swap them over??? Just a suggestion.

I have a similar thing in my tank, and the babies have been eating them. Are they likely to be harmful?
