    white worm when they are small.. they turn pinkish reddish when they are bigger... Usually harmless, but there are studies that says that there are a layer of toxic on the slug that is harmful to shrimp. Try Vemex if you want to get rid of them, but dont overdose it. Or get some nano fish in there to eat off them, just becareful of fishes if there are shrimplet in the tank. provide more cover for fry.
