Hey Everyone,

Recently was doing a deep clean as I was getting ready for 65 new frags coming in from a wholesaler for my new business. As I was deconstructing some of the live rock formations, I found this little guy below swimming around... At the time, only my 2 breeding mocha clown fish, file fish and some hermit crabs and snails were in my tank, no rock or sand or anything else. This was the only one I could find as well, but they could have easily gotten into my sump tank. Any thoughts on what this thing could be? Should I be doing anything to get it out, or is it relatively harmless? Thank you in advance for the help!

This may be gammarus. Even if not i think this is type of harmess creature. This might even be great as part of a clean up crew.

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

  • I haven’t really considered this before
