What is this little red hairy guy?

wolfthefallen · Dec 14, 2018

Doing a water change today, and noticed this little guy. If the bounce mushroom he is next too was fully expanded it would normally cover him up so I almost missed him. He is about the size of a pin head hence the blurry images, follow the link to the video for a better look. An ID would be useful in case I need to go remove him.

Looks like a red feather duster to me. I have a million of them in my tank.

that would be awsome, don't have any of those yet. I wonder how it got there.. I have not added anything new to the tank in a month or so

Yep red feather duster. If you look hard I bet you'll find more. Eventually you'll probably have lots of em.

I am always amazed when something new shows up.

The red makes a nice pop of color.
