Small creatures in axie tank

[Guardianangel69]

I keep finding baby snails in my axie tank. A moss ball I added had some type of eggs on it. Now there are these little white creatures attached to everything. They look like a small white piece of sewing thread with five smaller pieces coming out of the tip. I tried to get a good pic, but this is all I could get. Any ideas?

Apparently these ate hydra. Can they harm my axies?

 

[Boomsloth]

Hydra will latch on to prey and eat them but their prey consists of stuff they can actually hold down so a full grown axolotl should be wayy too big to be bothered by them

Also gonna add in that they only exist in tanks that have excellent water chemistry so good job!

Thanks, I've had some issues with water quality lately so I've been trying. I have two juvies that are four inches. Will they be ok too?

 

[Boomsloth]

They should be fine

Yeah I have Celeopods in my tank, It was a fright at first. Moss balls are a little worthless in terms of keeping your tank clean, but they do add nice natural chemicals and filter oxygen

HYDRA?
In the tank?
TERRIFYING. And dangerous. Better kill them before they grow into this: (p.s. cutting off the heads won't work)
