These little buggers happened to hitch hike on the riccia I received yesterday




Any clue on what they are and if they are harmful or just irritating?

Ewwwwwww. Did you QT the plant? I hope that's not a bad bug for you or your fishies.

The pics not showing up so now I'm even more curious in what you've brought home.

Hello Penance. Sorry, but I'm clueless here I'm sure someone will respond with knowledge on them here shortly. Water fleas perhaps?
I'll be looking forward to responses as well.
Thanks for posting!

Is it? they were only in my shrimp tank, do both fish and shrimp eat them?

That night I found them my shrimp acted like they were invisible

I'm not sure what they are but I'm thinking they look like fish food. I hope they don't hurt your shrimp.
