I got a microscope and took a water sample. Was trying to determine what this blue stuff is building up on my sand and rocks. However while looking at water sample I saw a bug looking thing in the water. I drew a picture of what it looks like. Does any science gurus know what this could be? It does not look like a copepod. It was moving and had two tenatacles on the one side of its body

Some sort of flatworm? How big are they?
Probably should post in the critter ID forum with some white light pictures of your rocks and sand too.
