You got HOOKED UP!!

Whoa!! Awesome!! Are you looking into tank or did you pull out Cheato? At least I think that's Cheato......

Wiz · May 23, 2016

There is chaeto in my fuge. But that piece im not sure is. I bought it for $5 it looks like chaeto but grows more like grass. Central root at the bottom which is attatched to a mussel shell and grows like grass. Straight up no curling. Here is a vid of my 30l fuge to give you a scale reference. :-) (original vid was in tank)

They do eat other pods. Fyi. Doesnt bother me. :-) I've also seen them graze on algae and at times appear to filter feed. They are the freakiest coolest looking little creatures.

Last vid is viewable.....for me :)

How are you getting that level of magnification?

BTW, I've never heard of these things.......very cool!!!

Curious if yall agree. First vid you see the shrimp grab and eat a copeapod. Second vid it appears the top one filters while the bottom one grazes. Such unique creatures.
