NDonily Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 I have been cycling my tank now for about 3 weeks. When I woke up this morning and turned on the light in my tank, I noticed these strange little White bugs on the glass. They are very very tiny but if i look very close at them they are tear drop in shape with a little tail , they seem to be huddeling together but they also move around fairly quickly but only on the glass. I am sorry but I dont have a camera at this time, if I get one I will upload a picture with this thread. Thankyou for your comments. Nathan Link to comment
NDonily Posted March 10, 2003 Author Share Posted March 10, 2003 I did some searches on google, I have come to the conclusion that they are amphipods and are a good sign, from what I have read. Please correct me if this is false Nathan Link to comment
Satchmo Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 They're copepods. Amphipods are the bigger guys. Both are beneficial. Link to comment
Reefy Posted March 13, 2003 Share Posted March 13, 2003 These creatures are great and harmless scavengers. Also good food for micro-canivores. Link to comment
