weird little jellyfish or something.

[InsanityPrawnBoy]

I turned my lights on after a long blackout and there are a few small little things that look like little tiny jellyfish or spiders or something. they were clear and I didn't see them after the lights came one. Any pages with a list of things I can look through to find them?

Also I might have flatworms, again I will need a reference site thanks

Some pics would help with the ID's...here is a site on flatworms: Melevsreef.com - Flatworms | How to eliminate them!

There is always the chance it might be a jelly fish of some sort, but they dont last very long in our tanks - they tend to be shredded in our equipment.

I have whitish flat worms, I only have a few in the tank on the glass. I want to break down the tank soon to get my 36 gallon up. So I should use flatworm exit after getting most out then change out the water?

I also have some fuzzy algae(maybe cyano) there is short white/clear on all my LR I think and a patch of pink that has regrown over time. I will get pics tomorrow but what is a recommended treatment for that? I want to get my rocks clean so when I use them in my new tank I don't have to treat it.

Thanks

Yes, I would treat with Flatworm Exit before you move stuff over to the new tank. Cyano isn't usually white or fuzzy. Once you post a pic we can probably give you more help on it.

Can't find my camera. But the clear/white stuff is like a spiderweb when I pick up a piece of rock itlooks like a think spider web. The pink stuff I am fairly sure is cyano.

The web is from sort of snail, but i cant remember which. It isnt bad, but it can irritate corals. If it does, just glue the hole of the tube shut

 

[treadwater]

if you have "vermetid snails" they produce a weblike strand from the top of the tubors

How big are they? I havent seen anything

 

[little_fish]

itty bitty. Google them

 

[the reef kid]

The look like little tiny feater dusters, but the tube is usually red, the end of the tube sticks straight out, and there's no feathers.

 

[Bifferwine]

Google hydroid jellyfish. It's farfetched, but probably the most common kind seen.
