    Found another one! NO idea what it is. I looked on LionFishLair's HH section and couldn't find it, tried google, again nothing. It's the green/white worm things. I tried to get rid of it, but now I have three.. Here are a few pics

    +1 IIRC they usually don't last too long in our tanks.

    Asterina star: Just found one on my glass! I was pretty happy, even though some people are iffy on them. I'll let it stay for the time being.

    Update!

    I have more stomatella than my other type now (still not sure what type that is). Also, brittle star population exploded, and I have over 15. If anyone in Ontario near my area wants black stomatella or brittle stars, lemme know!
