WTF!!!! OMG is this a reef spider?????!!!!!!!!!

[fishoholic]

I found this in my sump sitting on top of my cheato last night and OMG it looks like a spider!!!!! BTW did I mention I HATE spiders!!!!!!! I've never seen anything like it before ever! I'm guessing it came in on the new rock Doug just got for me. Any ideas as to what exactly this is? Good/bad??? Although I guess it doesn't really matter since it's in the sump now. I should add that it's fairly small about half an inch (roughly the size of my pinky finger nail) in size.

I would hate seeing that. If its like any other spider... bound to figure a way up to your tank.

I would flush the little beotch!

I have heard of zoanthid spiders before but they don't look like yours at all.

I checked out the image of a zoanthid spider and you're right it doesn't look like the one I got. I attempted to google "reef spider" but all sorts of creepy spider pic.'s showed up and I couldn't bare to look at them

And to think that there are sooo many undiscovered creatures in the ocean. There are countless things we can't imagine... and then this spider comes along. Creepy. I don't even like crabs in my tank. :P



How big is it?
