Not a clue what they are but I found some worms living in the bottom of my sump tank. I assume they came with the mussels I bought from aquablue, can anyone tell me what they are?

The glass shrimp and pacific blue eye I bought are for feeding to my redclaw, nothing like live food but they breed fast and often(horny lil bastards) so when the sump is overpopulated I'm going to harvest a kilo or so, dry them out and grind them up into powder to make pellets. I'm going to use the recipe I posted here. I've also got a really good worm farm going for fishy treats. Also if anyone in SE QLD wants a couple of freshwater mussels I have about 15 I don't need, send me a pm if you're interested.

my redclaw came last week, 50 in total. I've had 3 deaths so far, no escapes(that I can tell) and the system is cycling perfectly. ammonia, nitrite and nitrate rising slowly, so there is some bacteria growing at least.
ammonia - 0.25ppm
nitrite - 0.25ppm
nitrate - 3.0ppm
PH - 7.8
update in a week...

no complaints... all I do is feed the redclaw and the rest is automated. life is beautiful. I had 5 crays die. I caught one that escaped so I'm not too sure how many I have left, I'll find out at christmas when they all come out for the BBQ. not going to stress them out by catching them and counting them. I can see at least 20 hovering around at feeding time and there is quite a little PVC pipe jungle there for them to hide in. plants are nice and green can't wait. whoever thought of AP should get a nobel prize.
