Unknown 'critter' - any ideas?


Thanks to everyone for advice on getting rid of my Aiptasia, first
treatment of Calk given and I'll let you know how I get on.

I have also discovered yet another 'life form'. It (they) is small
and white, probably about 5-7mm long and 2-3mm wide, when
on the glass it looks a little like a snail but without a shell and it
also has a 'forked tail'.

Any suggestions?

I don't have a photo as every time I manage to get the camera
out it has managed to get into a position that I can't get to. I
think I'll just have to keep a camera next to the tank.........


Thanks in advance.
Regards
Ian

Just a pod of some sort or as we like to call them "Bugs"! Great for the tank and fish love to eat them! Also a sign that your tank is doing fine!

I have those too. Like Johnny says, they are good things to eat.
