I've got a fairly young tank (a couple weeks), 75 gallons with about 90 lbs of like rock. I've got a marroon clownfish, cleaner shrimp, 10 snails and 10 scarlet hermits (soon to be more). I've also got a couple soft corals (Xenia, some zoos, mushrooms...).
I'm running a 4 bulb T5 teklight fixture over the tank, and when I shut down two of the lamps to gradually dim the tank into night, I was watching my mushrooms, and from behind the rock I see a small wormlike creature come out and move around. It looks barely bigger thank a human hair, is cilyndrical as far as I can tell, seems beige-pink in color, and any time I try to flash light on it in the dark or go near the water with my hand, it dissapears instanlty. It's the only one I've seen so far, although I do remember seeing something similar a few days ago, but I thought nothing of it until I saw the thing pretty much swimming/crawling around today.
Should this worm thing be a concern to me? I read that you can bait and trap most parasites that can be harmful, I just hope I haven't got a big problem on my hands.
Thanks!
