Camallanus Worms False Alarm

See my next post. 
This turned out to be Midge AKA Chironomus riparius not Camallanus!

Just one more learning experience.
Any advice?

    Most likely, but I have only got a few mosquito fish out there. I would guess that they would eat the camallanus too, but if not then they may not be infected and the nematodes may die. I'll be sure to clean the system really well if I ever get around to putting fish in there.
