Help please

Ok. So I've noticed in the last week I have a lot of little floaties in my water. They will stick t the glass and look like a dot with 5 little legs I'm worried because I'm 2 weeks from adding fish to my tank so I Dnt want to put em in and watch em die if it's aparasite or something I know this is a terrible pic but it's the best I can get that's in focus.

Ay help is appreciated

Is the tank fully cycled? What kind of Live Rock and Sand do you have? Did it all come from someone elses tank? can you describe the little 5 legged creatures better and have you googled it... Better pic would be nice cause you can't tell what you are looking at.

 

[cwetherford]

Yes the tanks fully cycled and i got all the rock from another tank there tiny the only description I can give is a spec with 5 or 6 little leg things there's this I have these adult bugs in there I thought they were pods or something once again this isn't a great pic tho

It's all being taken from a cell camera so yeah I was thinking maybe they were eggs or baby version of these

So the circles areas are what we are looking at?

I think those are either hydroids or tiny jellyfish. I think they are harmless.

 

[aquabull]

Hydroids it is!

 

[cwetherford]

Yeah sorry it's not a great picture so are hydroids good bad or what? What do they do

 

[cwetherford]

And yea whats in the circles your looking at

 

[cwetherford]

I googled hydroids and I don't believe that's what it is. Hydroids kinda look like jellyfish anemone things and these look like little bugs with a few sets of legs they walk around on they seem to be eating a little hair algae

Ok so e thing on the glass is a hydromedusae (Staurocladia oahuensis) atone know what the bugs are just pods?
