Worms out of Control

[kirklt]

I have pink and purple worms that keep multiplying in my tank.

See picture below.

They are getting more and more aggressive, not fearing the light.

When food the drops to the bottom it looks like a science fiction movie.

Do I need to limit their population in any way?



Or can I sell these worms since they eat excess food?

They're multiplying because you feed them enough. And the stuff that would rot in your tank gets eaten and digested by these little guys. As long as they're not visibly hurting anything, just leave them be.

You could give them away, yes, they are good detritivores.
