    I kept getting these whitish particles on the inner surface my aquarium glass. During weekly water changes, i would scrub them off, but they always come back shortly. They seem to be swaying with the current generated by a HOB. I researched on the web, and Im definitely sure these aint planaria. Hydra? I dun think so as my RCS doesnt seem affected at all.

    What are these annoying particles?

    Yeah, its a planted tank. I admit i might have fed the rosy fin tetras abit too much bcos i was afraid that they will snack on my juvenile rcs if they are hunhry. I will try to cut down my feedings, thanks

    I think it will disappear if you keep your tank clean and more WC.
