microdrile oligochaete family
The Enchytraeidae are a microdrile oligochaete family. They resemble small earthworms and include both terrestrial species known as potworms that live in highly organic terrestrial environments, as well as some that are marine. The peculiar genus Mesenchytraeus is known as "ice worms", as they live in glaciers and will die if exposed to temperatures a few degrees above freezing. Apart from these, the best-known species is probably the Grindal Worm (Enchytraeus buchholzi), which is commercially bred as aquarium fish food.
Live in highly organic terrestrial environments .
I looked in my terrarium my spider. And I saw something move on a rock. It's microscopic hair-like. I took my macro lens to try to expand to the maximum. They are very ugly close up. hahahaha :))
