So uhm, I actually posted about this one the other day. But I now have clearer pictures of these tiny 'maroon / brown' crab hitchhikers. They are only ¾ to an inch in size and their 'shells' are full of bumps. I assume some of them are females because I can see them carrying black eggs...
Today I went down to my local aquarium store and got a medium sized rock that had some sunflower coral on it. I put the rock in the tank and then I noticed this strange thing coming out of the rock. Does anyone know what this might be? I think it’s a worm of some Kind.
Of all the hitchhikers I've been tru...this one is weird
Anyone know what it is? Reef safe? Or get rid of it? It's the widow spider looking egg sac thing on my fireworks polyps.
Thank you in Advance
Hello,
First time poster here. I'm having trouble identifying a hitchhiker that just showed up on my trochus snail within the past week. No new additions to the tank in a month which is part of my confusion. See attached photo but they look like white fuzzy cones. Any clue what this could be?
Howdy everybody,
I was up late and decided to flash the ol flashlight on my aquarium to see who was working the Night Shift and I saw this little guy flash by me. It’s a tiny transparent shrimp. Can anyone ID the little fella? As a bonus assignment there is also another random critter he...

Hello all!
I currently have two feather dusters in a very simple fishless qt tank for 40 days now and they are doing great! However, I just noticed this aiptasia looking thing growing on one of the feather dusters and I'm not really sure what it is and how to treat it so that I can add them in...
I noticed this weird thing growing on my new frag a few weeks back and since then I've tried dipping and picking them off with tweezers but It clearly didn't work. The coral is basically dead at this point think.
Does anyone have any idea what this weird thing is? Up close it looks like a type...
Over 3 months in and I’m still finding unknown critters at night. I need help identifying this crab. I’ve never seen a crab like this with such long antennae. It is really little and only comes out at night.
P.S. I apologize for the shaky camera work. I had a flashlight in one hand and the...
Hi everyone,
can you help ID this crab. It’s very shy. I have never seen it come out completely of the rock work. This is the best picture. I have been able to get of it.
thanks!
I have been to 3 local stores and they are not familiar with what is found d on my frag. They are almost black in appearance and look like mini mushrooms almost. The frag is an acan but what's on the frag doesn't seem like new acan heads to me. One picture is of the hitch hikers and the other is...
We found this on a piece of live rock this morning. I added some snails and hermit crabs yesterday. The second picture was taken after one of the crabs turned it over.
Hi folks, I noticed this thing in my tank recently. I thought it was a majano nem at first but it appears to have 2 eyes to I guess it's a kind of mollusc?
please help me id this thing. Cheers!
I noticed this brown coral looking thing on one of my live rock the day after the dust settled when I first set up the tank. A couple of months have passed and it has not shrunk or grown.
Can anyone help identify what it may be?
Hello,
I recently got a coral and in the bag, there are a few, maybe 3 or so, of these sort of floating around. The 'tail' of the worm moves around and it sort of swims but not really.
What are people's thoughts? I intend to dip the coral but this little guy in the bag could be tossed into...
This is aiptaisa right? It has little curly tentacles with bubble looking segments. Hard to get a good photo of it. Gonna try and attach a video of it! (: tank is empty aside from the live rock for cycling!

Hi everyone!
I have read plenty abo it how bristleworm a are mostly good with the exception of one kind. I don’t think this one is that bad type but I suspect this fella was doing something I’m not too happy about.
I have a cauliflower coral right by where I spotted him today. A couple of days...
Hi everyone,
I’ve had this nudibranch in since I set up my aquarium about 5-6 weeks ago. I don’t have many corals in the tank yet but he still is lurking in the shadows, I’ve noticed he’s nocturnal.
I just wanted to see if anyone knows what kind of Nudi it is and if it may become an issue for...
I have had this little guy come with my live rock. The tank has been up and running around 5 to 6 weeks and he’s still here. Very small and timid.
If anyone knows what it is I can’t figure this one out.
