Peeleca Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I just noticed some new organisms playing around my finger leather. Are these indeed Copepods or anything that should be concerning? I apologize for the photo quality, but it was the best I could get with what I had. Link to comment

Jellyingabout Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 ugly?! Nah, they're cute. Yeah but you hardly have normal taste, you have an aiptasia tank and a sheep skull Link to comment
Peeleca Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 Haha! Thanks for the response! Now, should I add something to this 3g Pico that will keep them in check? Or could I display this as a Zoa Garden with Amphipods They are everywhere now! Link to comment
Jellyingabout Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Nothing that fits in a 3g will get them but they shouldn't cause to much of a problem. An established CUC will out compete them for food which will keep their numbers in check. Although a large clown or goby may possibly munch on one if it was hungry. but no guarantees. Link to comment
Mariaface Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 For what it's worth, my clowns decimated the amphipod population in my tank in a couple of months, tops? Link to comment
