goochs Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Sorry I don't have a pic but I am just cycling my new tank with lr I got from the lfs.. I noticed this critter about 1/4inch somewhat oval and clear jelly like color, with a darker stipr down the middle. Has about 10 legs and antennae and it scurries around very very fast. If I can find it again I'll try and get some pics but it is quite small, now that I think of it , that is way less than a 1/4inch for I was looking through a magnifing glass when I was viewing it. Thanks Phil :*( Link to comment

MarLooney Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 i doubt it's a copepod. they're so small you can hardly see 'em w/ the naked eye. it's most likely an amphipod. Link to comment
