This little worms build tunnels on my green star polyps and bother my zoas. What the hell are they? Even they survive fresh water baths!!

They like wrestling too [emoji16]

I was watching the entire fight with a magnifing glass, it was really scary.

Not sure they are amphipods. As far as i know amphipods are similar to little prawns, aren't they? there are little prawns too in the tank but these ones are smaller, their body is fully straight (not when they are fighting) [emoji38]

Thanks!

Munnid isopods then. Also harmless.

He's saying they're messing with his corals though...not really harmless.

yes, been searching for isopods and found a picture exactly like them (I'm not sure if it's allowed to link pictures from a website)

I was worried because i saw them pulling green star polyps and zooas with their tweezers but it seems not kill them

Thank you!
