Little bugs???
Hello everyone. My wife and I have just begun a new tank and lately we have noticed several tiny little white bugs crawling over our live rock. They look almost like fleas of some sort. I am sorry I dont have a pic to post of them but was just wondering if any of you may know what they are. They dont seem to bother anything in the tank but I would still like to know what they are?

THey are what everyone refers to as 'pods', that is amphipods, copepods, etc. They are harmless, and an excellent food source for many tank inhabitants. Once you put something that eats them in the tank they'll become scarce, so enjoy while you can!
Cheers, Aaron |
