night creatures- with picture
In the past few days I've found these things in my tank well after the lights have gone out. I could not get a picture but I looked on Google images and they look pretty close to this

Sorry, pics not working.

From the picture it looks almost like Mysis shrimp.

I only see them at night when the lights have been out for a while. How would I suddenly get Mysis in the tank? Oh well, that's a good think I guess if that's what they are. |
Usually in some aged live sand or maybe hitchhiked on some live rock or large coral. I used to seed all my tanks with several pounds of live sand from OA & get tanks overrun with pods & mysis in a few months.
BTW, looks like live mysis to me. Anthony |
I just picked up some live rock from Ed99 (thanks by the way), but anyway when I was putting them in the tank had one of those fall on the glass top. I agree they do look like mysis.
