Hey folks!

Looking for some insight to what this little thing on my glass is! Three of them have popped up throughout the tank. They are very, very small, don’t seem to move or grow. Thoughts?
Thanks!

I’m no expert and someone may have Bette knowledge than me but it looks like it could be some sort of anemone. Maybe a baby aptasia ?

Maybe a glass or ball nem but I have no idea. Isn't it one of the coolest things (and most horrific) to find random life in your tank though!!!! Its my favorite thing to watch happen

Is it a hydroid jellyfish? I am no expert, but it bears a resemblance:

Agreed that looks very similar

 

[Arthacker87]

You can tell people you have a jellyfish tank now!!!!

 

[sde1500]

Yep looks like a Hydroid

Looks like a medusa hydroid. From what I understand, they're fairly common in newer tanks. Tend to go just disappear over time.

Thanks for all the suggestions! Looks most like the Medusa hydroid from what I can tell. Doesn’t seem like something to be concerned with being that they get knocked off when cleaning the glass, yes? Unless they live elsewhere in the tank and these are only the ones I can see? Any need for concern IYO?

thanks!
