Hey all, I'm not sure if i put this in the right section, so feel free to move it if you want
I just got back from turkey (was awsome saw loggerhead turtles and loads of wildlife..)
So yeah i got ack from my holiday at 3 in the morn and i stumbled into my room and turned the light on in there, and whaddya know. I've got loads of 'bugs' that weren't there before. I would get a picture but they're too small.
I've had the tiny white 'fleas' on the glass for ages, but these seem to have legs and go along the gravel

Also - in turkey i bought some coral and it broke a little in the bag, so can i use milliput to repair it?

it sounds like you have new amphipods!! (they look like tiny shrimp) I came home one night at about 2 or 3 in the morning and turned on my lights to see the little buggers all over my rock too :P

haha yea! They're pretty cool. I also have little fluffy stuff on the glass. It sort of looks like algae but its a little fluffier. I would tell you what colour it is...accept i'm colourblind :l

charzar-g

sorry to double post. but i also have a really darck circle of algae amongst the green algae about the size of a baby finger nail...should i scrub it off? :/

Naeusu

Well it's too bad you're colorblind :X

If you can ask someone else, if the algae is purple, redish, or pink, it might be coralline algae which is very good for your tank :3

I'm not sure what the fluffy stuff could be.

my dad said its dark green.... not good then eh?
It scrubsr off, but it takes a little bit more pressure than the normal stuff :P

EDIT: Turns out some is dark green and some is red :3
