Weird Critter


This is a picture from my little brothers tank. He asked me what this thing was and I have no idea. The picture is taken at at the top of the water, so you can see its reflection. Any ideas? I can try to take a better picture if that would help. Is it harmful?

put your hand in there and see if it bites it, this way we can figure out if it eats meat or if it is a herbavore!

Haha, It looks kind of mean, I don't think I want to touch it. Here is a better picture. I think they came with the polyps they are on, he just got them a few days ago. They don't seem to happy with these critters on them.

I asked the little brother "I'm not 100% sure what they are, but I think they are bad, what do you want to do?" He said "Well... They could be bad, they are deffinatley ugly, I think they need to be flushed." So far I got 7 of them out, and that is all I see.

Make sure you wear gloves if youtry to remove themby hand, they are just as if not more toxic than the zoos they eat.
