Little "bugs" (copepods?) in my cheato...
I noticed today that the cheato that I have in my tank seems to be crawling with these creepy little things.... "bugs" for lack of a better term.
I think they may be copepods? I googled copepods but its hard to tell because all of the photos are close ups and all I see in my tank are little things with antennae and a bunch of legs and they are kinda white-ish see-through. My hermit crabs seem to like them....
Anyways, I wanted to make sure that they are not harmful to my tank. I'm pretty much a noob and my tank has only been set up for a month and a half. I thought it took a long time to get copepods (from what I have read about people wanting them for mandarin gobies).
Anyways, any info would be super!
Thanks!
Lindsey
