Weird, thin, white worm in fish tank?
Okay, so today at Pet Smart I got a dwarf frog...as soon as I put him in the tank, these thin, small worms started swimming around. Like, literally right after I put him in the tank. They're about the size of a finger nail, and as thin as a hair. Any help would be appreciated. I don't want the rest of my fish to die! I just recovered my tank from snails...now this??!

They are non parasitic worms, and they are harmless to your fish. Small fish might even eat them for snack.
Usually they appear in the tanks which had been overfeeding.
Cut back on feeding, and they will disappear.
