Literally, every day is something new. Haha

These were not here yesterday in any amount that was readily apparent.

This evening, BOOM, they’re EVERYWHERE and on everything:

It looks like bubbles coming out of your live rock. But the pic is a bit hard to see.
 
Do these guys come out in the evening only ? Looks like small stomella snails. . . . but could also be copepods

The cameras on these phones... ugh.

Maybe this is better?


 


None of the fish (Ruby Dragonettes, Melanarus, etc.) seem to be eating these things and it seems as though there are even more... UGH

I think @KJ gave a good id on them, am currently dealing with something similar, they are quickly growing in numbers and no fish is interested in them, looking to get a dragonface pipe fish to see if will help keep they’re numbers in check.

I bought two pipefish last week... ZERO interest.

well there’s my plan out of the window den, what pipe fish did you got? I was thinking dragonface as they eat red bugs which look similar, I’ve seen people breading them in freshwater for the fry they say adults don’t really eat them. I can’t see your vid only pics are yours like mine?
