Hi all! So I was watering my T. Stirmi's enclosure today and noticed tons of little white mites scurrying from the water. They are not springtails as I can identify those and I have those in there as well in smaller numbers. They seem to resemble tiny slings running around with kind of long legs but a round body. They run pretty fast from any light. After my research, these seem to be harmless mites. Is this correct? Also, when I was observing the mites I noticed a very small(.25") and slender white/clear worm. I was going to get it out but I can no longer find it. Is this of any concern? Could it be a nematode? Any help is appreciated!
