Cirolanid

[rone_kevin66]

I have seen an these all over my tank the past 2 nights. I think they are Cirolanid. Dose anyone know a way to get rid of them besides a net and baster. I pulled 5 of them out this morning befor the lights but I saw more swimming.

Wow that thing is seriously creepy looking. Unfortunately this is the first I've heard of them so I have no idea how to get rid of them.

I had them years ago when I purchased live rock from a seller that had a aquaculture lease offshore.

They killed my first sand sifting goby....If your tank is newly set up go fallow or fishless and this will starve them out for sure.

I used the bait traps and went fallow, after doing so I never saw them again.
