minchton Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 Help I think I have just been having a close look at my new marine tank and discovered on a piece of live rock an infestation of little bugs. These are white almost clear and appear to be up to 3mm in size. They crawl at a good speed and appear to have legs and some sort of front feelers. look something like a centipeed but not as bendy . Sorry this is the best I can do. Are these good or bad things please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 Moved this to the saltwater section Mitch where it is more likely to get an answer for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimera Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 probably little copepods and amphipods - yummy food for some breeds of fish (like mandarin and gobies) you got some of chris' live rock for your tank didn't you? they've probably come from that. they are all good. see here if you wanna have a read about them: http://saltaquarium.about.com/cs/pestscopepods/a/aa061200.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
