Hi I need help please. I am trying to remove all good hitchhikers from this tank over the next coupe months and swap to a new one. The previous owner clearly never dipped. These are the hitch hikers I am aware of ; Bristle worm, Bobbit worm, Colostina snail, Asterina starfish, Limpet, Amphipods. I have 3 new ones I noticed that I need help to ID.
The first is the biggest problem. My usually beautiful GSP was completely closed and it looked like a bunch of my cat's hair had made it in the tank. I removed and dipped in coral RX, brushed gently and put it back in. The GSP opened back up but now I see strings again. could this be hydroids?
The second I just noticed and I believe might just be copepods but I never noticed them in 9 months.
The third I noticed on the glass when I was looking at what I believe are copepods. They are tiny and everywhere. I have no idea what they are. Their size is probably why I never noticed them.
Could I get help confirming what everything is please?
Ok attached the video/photo in wrong order
