    Just bought a few coral and found this little guy in the batch. It's extremely small. Red and white stripes. Any ideas?

    It is indeed a brittle, nice hitch-hiker. I would not expect it to get much bigger.

    Yep, what Corailline said! Doesn't seem to be one of the bad ones

    I dropped it in the tank. Most likely will never see it again if it doesn't get much bigger. If it didnt crawl off the new acan I never would have seen it before the coral dip.
