I have in my tank what appear to be VERY tiny jellyfish that are peach colored. They puff in and out like jellyfish, and swim like jellyfish; but do not have the tenticles that jellyfish do. Are these a form of feather duster worms or something else?

These are a type of parasite that leave a hosts body when they get too big, and then they search for a bigger host. I have dealt with them before and you can kill them by getting a type of spray at your local pet store. If you cannot find it then take all of your fish and put them in a different container until all the water in your regular aquarium has been replaced. You will also have to make sure no new worms get in. You can do this by checking if their skin is lighter than it should be, if so kill it and any others infected.
