Help me ID these

[WirelessMike]

Gave my neighbor some frags in a small container and he sent me this photo asking what these are? He says they are red bugs, but I’m not deep enough in this hobby to really know and I don’t have any acros or hard corals. Any help is appreciated from the brain trust.

Baby snails?

Baby snails?

That’s what I was thinking but all of you know more about all of this than I do

Definitely not red bugs. They look like collonista snails.

Thanks @SaltyT i almost had a heart attack when he started texting me that I had red bugs

If he thought those were red bugs I hope he doesn't have any Acros or hard corals either.

Collonista snails, good guys.

So this is where I ask him for my red bugs back? Lol

He shouldn’t be complaining if you gave him free coral!

My neighbor mowed my lawn trying to be nice while I was sick a few months ago. Told him not to do it again....
Some things you just don’t do.....
Here’s the kicker, it looked pretty good afterwards!

Another kicker, then he tried to get me to do his charity work when he went to the beach! He planned that crap good. Help the sick neighbor and when I go to the beach he’ll take care of mine!
Guess what didn’t happen.....

+1 on collanista which are the size of a pea and tend to come in as hitchhikers, and breed quite easily. If you look at your tank late at night, you'll typically see lots of them once you know what you are looking for. They never get any larger, and seem to assist in eating some algae.

Just don’t want my neighbor mowing my lawn when I knew he’d be wanting something back.... nothing is for free anymore unless your sick
