The bugs are probably just some type of amphipod or copepod but without a clearer picture, I can't be positive. Can't help you with the lights either because I don't know nuthin about your lighting  |

Yeah, I figured they were just too small. I'm going to move the rock, they are on, closer to the glass tomorrow and see if maybe I can catch them moving around. They walk like ants, kinda weird looking, but don't seem to be bothering anything. A few of them will gather and looks like a huddle, then they are off running around.... | |

They are isopods. You probally got them from me. My coral tanks are fishless, so their population has exploded. _________ [center]Renaming Our Corals "Believe those who are seeking the truth; doubt those who find it." Andre Gide | |

Some of these tiny buggers live in the conch of one of my crabs. They seem to be harmless. | |

The light looks a bit cool to me looks like a yellow /sun light ? What K bulbs and brand bulbs are you using ? But the water looks yellow to me maybe it is the lamps or DOC's ? _________ Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enough to know they were impossible (Doug Larson) | |
