Bugs, oh the horror

[Slimkasey]

So I just recently bought a live rock with some coral on it, and I thought I'd seen them before and got them, mainly by accident I discovered, but tonight, I just saw another 6 or so.

These are small, white and very fast. Les than " 16th of an inch, kind of look like a flea, any ideas what these could be?

How do I get rid of them?

And I promise not buy from this guy, he didnt even offer to sell me dip, and I asked him about it.

those are pods, and they are good guys. They are free fish food

Do pods run around rocks and the sand, forgive my ignorance, I thought they were floaters.

Also as I only have clown fish, do they eat them?

 

[little_fish]

pods are crawlers not floaters :)

And yes, your clown fish will eat them, but dont rely on them for all the food your clowns need.

Pods are great!

Google amphipods and copepods. You probably have something that looks similar to those.
