Worried for shrimps

[raunchyz]

i recently realised that my cherry shrimp tank housed some worms. i am not too sure as to what these worms are. they are pinkish brown in colour with no distinct features observable, somewhat like a tubifex worm with a lighter colour intensity. these worms feed on the algae wafer which i feed my shrimps.

are there any risks for my shrimps to cohibit with these worms? if not, how do i remove them without hurting my shrimps?

Hi,

It could be Planaria worms that is usually caused by over feeding.

Check below link on some info of planaria.

seems like they are planaria. thing is can i just ignore them because my shrimps juz gave birth and i do not want to kill them before they mature.
