Unknown white things

[cparent]

HI there,

I woke up this morning and checked my female bettas tank and there were these super tiny little white things in my tank. I was hoping someone could please let me know what they are and if there harmful to my betta. I did have some amano shrimp in there a month or two ago but they all died (I don’t know to much about shrimp) I don’t know if that’s relavent or not. I also feed her frozen foods I don’t know if a parasite could have come along with them? I don’t know, if someone knows what these are could you please let me know I’m worried.

Thank you.

I can't tell from the pic if they're fry or an unwanted nasties. If it is the latter then what I can say for certain is that they're feeding off the surface film which looks rich in excess nutrient.

But if they're fry of some sort then congrats.

Are those betta pellets floating at the edge of the water line? Excess food feeds all kinds of microscopic life in our tanks. Most of it is totally harmless but can be unsightly. Remove all uneaten food and only feed your little guy what he will eat while you are watching and all this microscopic life will gradually die off.

maybe just little bubbles on the sides, but if you are lucky, congrats on some lil fry!

Fry of some type, likely shrimp. Congrats! You did good!
