Fish with silver eyes??

[cbrsorlo]

hello all.

I found something in my tank tonight with the lights off and only the white LED on. This looks like a fish (fresh water minnow body) or eel looking that has a transparent body with silver metallic eyes and a silver belly. Looks like his skin is transparent with a black skeleton. btw this scared the crap outta me... I tried taking pictures but it didnt come out good and right now i managed to catch him in a net. Does anyone know what this is? harmful or safe for the tank?

Sorry if i post in the wrong section.

Do you have a cucumber in your tank? My guess would be it's a Pearlfish. They live inside cucumbers & only come out at night.

How big is it? It sounds a little like a Mysid shrimp.
