    i just took one of my corals from my tank its a softie but had been looking terrible latly i took it out and was doing a dip in iodine when i moved it around this little guy game off of it and wet back to it was very tiny brown looks to have two antenna on it som sort of parasite im guessing so i moved it around again as soon as it swam off again i removed th coral and now he has no where to go and i think he was the cause of the murder scene anyone?
