Munnid isopods. Highly beneficial.
I guess my refugium is healthy. Got a tons of copepod and those isopod plus amphipod in DT.
Pic attached
It's a nudibranch of some sort. I believe that particular variety is a soft coral eater.
I found a bunch of these little snails on my sand as the lights were going out. And found one on my lobo. Any ideas what it is?
I've tried to find anything that resembles it in hitchhiker guides but haven't seen any. It's very tiny and is dark brown/black and almost looks like it has a slight spiral shell. Only snails i'm supposed to have in my tank are astrea, cyrith, turbo. I do have collonista and stomatellas aswell.

Anyone have any ideas on what this is? Looks pretty creepy...
It's a beneficial terebellid worm.

I think the dark little tiny thing in the middle of the pic. I can't tell what it is though. Too small. All I know is pyramid snails are small and bad but no idea if that is one.
ya they are VERY tiny. I can't get my camera to zoom in enough to take a great picture of them. The shell shape looks like it could be cerith, But they are tiny so i'm not sure. I google'd pyramid snail and the shape is similar but all the images i saw they were a white/tan not the black like these.. not sure if that matters or not
Can anyone tell me what this hair like algae is growing on my live rock and what would be a sufficient way of getting rid of it?

Do Asterina stars eat zoa's and/or things like kenya'n trees? I had a major outbreak of them a little while back. I have noticed "sores" on the trees and today I saw an Asterina on one of these areas. I unfortunately lost my colony of zoa's

I am cycling my tank and have a few pieces of live rock I am seeding the sump with. I have some pods running around on it and I noticed something else today. I saw some long hair like tentacles. These are individual and have a feathered look to them. They are white in color almost looked like a cobweb. I thought that was it until I noticed it twitching. Its definitely living. Any ideas?
