I Dip, You Dip, We Dip....

Hey found a couple little guys in the dipping solution after some new corals went in the tank. Curious what they are. Pic below.

The top two are amphipods, not sure what the bottom one is.

Looks like harmless, beneficial pods.

Agreed.

If you're not familiar with them, be careful around them, they can really get you (not my pics):

I am in this picture and I can feel the hurt.

They’re not TOO bad, more annoying than painful. I’ve definitely had times when I didn’t get stung when I touched them so I think it’s a release thing on their end and not just a passive defense. Could be wrong though.

These small ones won’t sting though. Way too small
