Teeny little silver grey bugs in my phal medium!
Default Teeny little silver grey bugs in my phal medium!

Hey guys,
I can someone help, I repotted 3 out of my 5 phals a few months back, I had watered them in a while so have them a soak (poured water through them, let them sit for a few mins and the took them out to drain) I then noticed some teeny, like 1/6th of an inch, silvery grey things swimming about in the water !! Also, the new potting bark seems to make the water run brown, is this normal ?
They're only in the three I repotted, so my guess is the little critters were in the potting medium I got in the garden centre.
Can you help me identify them? I've only ever seen them in the bark, never above 'ground'. If you take the inner pot out the decorative one you can someone catch them hanging out in the bottom of the decorative pot. I know they're not mealybug, deal with those little guys in the past.
Thank you!
Laila
