I have a Biocube 32 that is about 2.5 weeks old right now. It has 20lbs of live sand and about 20lbs of Carib Sea Life Rock. Anyways I was doing a water test when I noticed a small bug crawling on the rocks. It's about the size of a grain of rice. See pictures. How in the world did it get in my tank and is it a good guy or bad guy?

Cheers
