Found a few of these tiny babies eating algae and trying to ID:

It's one of the algae eating species for sure; I can't add much for species ID.
 
Cool! Where did it come from?
 
I found 3 of them on the plug of a new acro frag that arrived yesterday. Before I dip new acquisitions, I place them in a container with tank water and use a turkey baster to see what comes off before dipping. I don't like to needlessly kill beneficials. :angel:
