pimp4cheddar Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 My tank has been set up for about 4 months and running at full speed for about 1-2 months. When I get home...my house is dark and my lights are off. As soon as I put on my lights, I see about 20-25 small shrimps eating around my sand. They look clear and have small black spots on them. It takes them about 3-4 minutes to run away and fully hide themselves in the live rock...after that you don't see them for the rest of the day. They look just like the "THING" in Figure 4: see here Any idea if they are good for the tank? Either way...I really want them out...they kinda gross me out! Thanks, Link to comment
StevieT Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 pods you don't want them out. http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=132956 Link to comment
Lalani Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Pods, it's fine. And this should be in the Identification forum. Edit: Damn you, Mr. T. Link to comment

pimp4cheddar Posted February 4, 2009 Author Share Posted February 4, 2009 I apologize...I figure they were live rock hitchers...so I'll post them there... I was also looking for a FAQ thread...and couldn't find it...thanks Steve Link to comment
StevieT Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 no worry, just leave it here for now. They are hitchikers. They are seen at night, the break down detritus and are a good sign. Your fish will eat them. Link to comment
pimp4cheddar Posted February 4, 2009 Author Share Posted February 4, 2009 I doubt that...I have 1 Fire Fish...he's kinda outnumbered!!! Link to comment
Nanobuds Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 firefish dont usually eat those, but if you have alot, a mandarin or six line wrass can take care of them if you dont like them, but they are good Link to comment
