Your CUC would make a meal out of it

sorry about a silly question.. what means CUC?

CUC = clean up crew (snails, crabs, ect).
keep an eye on ammonia just in case it causes a spike.
unfortunately uronema is becoming more and more popular and once you get it in the tank the only way to get rid of it would be to tear the tank down and bleach everything.
Best to do a thorough quarantine before adding anything wet to your display in my opinion.
