Alright, I'm not even sure what category this one is in... Sorry that pictures aren't the greatest, couldn't get it 100% in focus. I think I saw what may have been a juvenile version of it too on another plug, but that one scurried away. It was almost transparent, and a lot smaller, but seemed to have the same body structure. Any thoughts?

Amphipod. Good to have as they help clean up the tank by eating uneaten food.

Ah, okay... In that case, awesome! I've just never seen them that large in person, so it didn't even cross my mind. I guess my little invert / coral QT is maturing nice and quickly. I already have coralline sprouting up too, and it's barely been running one month.

Thank you much! ;Woot

No problem. I have loads of these in both my tanks. I see more after lights out than with the lights on.

That's probably why I only just noticed them... Both QT tanks are in a utility closet, and I happened to go check on them barely five minutes after the lights kicked on, so they were still scurrying about. lol
