Found this weird worm critter in my tank Not thrilled at all. Does anyone know what it is? Hasn't burrowed under the sand a few mins later. Kinda looks like it has legs?!
My frogspawn is shriveled up because I just moved it as I put in some different rock, but I just noticed these white dots on it that look odd. Any ideas if this is something bad?
It’s usually in full extension when I don’t tick it off my moving it.
Thanks
I am in the process of moving my tank to a larger one. While removing the rock and sand I caught 3 large worms. I can’t tell if they are large bristle worms or possibly Oenone fulgida? They don’t have the large tentacles of a eucilide. It has a black mouth/head which doesn’t match my other...
Hello! Recently, I've noticed tiny creatures in my 16-gallon saltwater aquarium, similar to worms but with miniature hands. They've been consistently present in my filter during changes. Unlike the ones in videos, mine walk between rocks and don't swim. Any insights on what they are and if...
White worm found in rock. I was chiseling away pieces of rock with mushrooms. He was literally running through the rock away from me.
Found this massive flatworm in there too, 3-4”.
What is the white worm? Peanut?
This is the third predatory flatworm I’ve found in this tank. What is it, what...
Hi!!
Guys I need your help, a couple of days ago, I noticed tiny things in my tank, I do not know if they are worms, bugs, or what they are, but I know there are tons of them.
And I do not know if they could be harmful or not to the reef.
So I was wondering if any of you guys can identify...
I have been setting up a small NPS tank with my Fluval Evo 13.5 and recently noticed a small red object in the sand bed. At first I thought it was just a left over piece of Gracillaria or something but I took a closer look earlier because I noticed it had moved and realized it has lots of little...
So I have a few bristle worms in my tank.. however in this video it seems that it has a green or greenish blue shimmer to the top of it. Is this just from the lights or the shimmer of the water? Just curious if anyone knows?
I have started to see a number of these very small (1 - 2 millimeter) brown/orange worms on the zoa garden. Zoas seem fine.
I collected one and put it in water on the top of a small plastic coffee lid. Photo and video below.
I've read there are benign worms that match this size, but I'd like...
I got some snail hitchhikers in a plant and I was like ok kinda cute I don’t want to kill them and now in the snail tank there’s a bunch of these stringy worms suddenly . I’ve looked through a lot of these threads and I’m not seeing any pics of the same worms I have. They are very microscopic...
I've noticed there are a lot of posts about worms already but I don't have time to check each one. So sorry but here's another one!
Backstory: Bought a bunch of macroalgae from Gulf Coast Ecosystems and noticed a weird worm still alive between a bunch of branching Coralline algae. When I poke...
Saw this on my damsel this morning… impossible to catch the fish so far ☹️. Can anyone tell me what type of pest it is and if it’s going to come off on its own?
Just added 4 new hermit crabs. They all were immediately active after putting them in the tank. Couple hours later this guy stopped moving and I saw a pink worm looking thing come out of his shell. Now he appears to be slowly evacuating the shell. What is the pink worm thing crawling on his...
Hello, I recently started noticing 2 small white centipede like “bugs” on the glass of my tank. They have antennaes, many “feet” like a centipede, move slowly, and are completely white. The bugs are very small but still bigger than pods. My tank has been fallow for 8 weeks now following a...
Just saw this floating around in the bottom of my bare bottom tank. Took it out for some inspection. Included pictures of what I would along with the rock if that would help identification. Thanks!
Have had these in my tank for a little while now and haven't been able to figure out what they are for sure. They're white and black stripped and like to collect around this coral and I'm not sure if they're benign or something I should be removing.
Here's an image, please ignore the turf algae...
Hi, Im trying to restart my tank aiming for a bristle worm free tank (I know bristle worms are good CUC but I just have mental problem with them so my tank cant have them and please dont attach any worm related images or ill freak out thanks). I know as a fact there are tons of them in my tank...
Hi! I noticed a nasty lil worm thing moving, inching its way out of a hole in the rock. Obviously I was curious to see what the heck it was so I turned the tank light on and it shrunk back in the hole. I'm new to saltwater tank keeping so I just want to make sure this isn't a harmful parasite of...
Looking for help identifying worm in tank. Doesn't seem to be hurting anything just hangs out in xenia most of the time. Tried to remove thinking was bristleworm but it's to fast for me and one time I did get him split in half and regrew. Is about 4in when fully stretched out.
