Worms

In my attempt to hunt down what is killing fish in my tank, I took some time looking at my tank under moonlights and a flashlight.  I discovered a few disconcerning things (they maybe normal to you) unfortunatly they hid shortly after the light hit them.  The first was a worm that had stretched itself out of a pin sized whole to a rock about 10" away.  When the light hit it it recoiled in to the hole, but not before I noticed the end of it fork in a Y shape.  It was clearish looking.  The second worm is white and round and 1.5" and about as big around as a pencil led.  The last thing (sorry so many questions!) was some little bugs that looked like little lice jumping on one of my rocks.  Any ideas?

Thanks for the reassurance!

Cool stuff!

a red filter on the light or a red led will also help, a lot of the critters can not see the red wavelength(or at least don't seem to mind it) It was a red led that I used to catch a couple of fishes recently, they could see it but didn't react to it the same.

I use some cheap red cups to melt fish food in, so I put these cups over a maglite and use that to look at the tank at night.....
