A couple of still photos may very well work

 

[ying yang]

Video still wont show @vetteguy53081 ?

Those are definitely isopods. I just don't know if they are parasitic or fish food.

 

[LAA]

Video works. Not sure what they are tho.

Malanuras wrasse would wipe those out. Get a female. Peaceful and beautiful

I can see the last video just fine. But sadly I have never seen anything like that in my reef tanks. It does not look like an Amphipod or Copepod.

Here you go @vetteguy53081 some screenshots.
Been trying since last night to get bloody video shared but me and tech are arch enemies.finally thought last video was a winner and would share but with you asking for photo i guess not lol


Edit: great 3 people can see video so seems i finally worked it out lol.

Ive got a silver belly wrasse and blue streaked cleaner wrasse.
I decided to get silver belly as good peaceful critter/pest/bug eater but will look again into wrasses as i like wrasses.i only want to have 10 fish and im at 8 so will need see how big melanarus grow which if memory serves me right is quite big.but maybe i can squeeze 11 fish in my 80 gallon as 5- 6 fish quite small,blennies/gobies etc.
But these little bugs whatever they are are hiding in a gsp frag which teaming with critters and lots underhangs and overhangs in the rock its on and they always hidden from the wrasse so will need decide if going remove all gsp from rock/ fragplug then re-attach to another and save all critters i want .

Thankyou all for looking video and ty mibu for patience of pressing countless videos on private ha ha

If the wrasse cant reach them and isn't eating them, time to pull the frag and dip.

Dip with what as this gsp frag that they must came on got dipped and strength of dip was stronger than recommended. Only killed 2 tiny tiny tiny looked like starfish.lfs recommended the dip in attached photo .but looks like killed next to nothing.i let sit in dip/saltwater container and swooshed water every so often and turned upside down few times and vigorously swooshed around.
Maybe need buy coral rx or any other recommended dip ?

As only corals before this was a 2 head paly on small frag plug.10 head zoa on small frag plug.and i used all dry rock and dry sand so guessing this only way could got in with amount life i have on this gsp frag/colony as cant see this much life hiding in a hermit shell

The 2nd video i shared after changing to public still doesnt show for you buddy ?
3 or 4 others can see and watch 2nd video i shared here now ? 2nd video on post 5 at 38 minutes ago.
They crawl like bugs and not snail like when moving.
Never seen baby copepod so dont know what they look like,at a guess they like 5mm big so maybe bigger already than copepod but i really do not know.
Try video in post 5 if not already but will try do some more on youtube to make you see link for video.ty for your time btw

That's not them vette. They look like isopods. And they are bigger than the copepods. They crawl around . Definitely not snails. I did my best to fabricate the bug.
They look like rollipolly bugs.

This pic helps. It is no doubt Isopods although most harmless, do get big and there are bad ones, hence I dont want them in my tanks. While many isopods are free living and harmless and can be beneficial to a reef tank , a large number are either predatory, or parasitic or can bedangerous to other reef aquarium animals.
Yellow coris and 6 lined wrasses will eat them

Ok thanks and thanks all.guess will peel gsp off rock best i can and either try save all ampripods, spaghetti worms and any other beneficial critters i can ( somehow, but dont know how yet as there so many places for them to hide in them frag plugs and rocks on top lol.
As you can see from video its like a miniature cave system in there lol.will try swoosh them out and pippette them up or something.if not plenty more chances to get more beneficial critters.and hope all these isopods stayed in that rock and didnt move off it ( highly unlikely so maybe im stuck with them who knows)
Any idea on this thing that looks like a snail while we all here ^_^its bright white,quite small like few mm and moves like a snail,its shell like offsided if get me.cant see nothing like it on the net after looking last night
