Gross!! hitchhiker ID?

[805]

some kind of planaria, about 3/8 of an inch long found it in a rock of eagle eyes.
(It survived a double dose of flatworm exit!)

wtf is that you keep it alive

i dont think its a planaria. it's more of a nudi IMO.

Yah it looks like some kind of nudi. Cool color

We need to start the hitchhiker ID sticky with all the pics of bad boys. Don't even think RC has that.

Like a most wanted list. ALMOST all menacing looking things in our tanks are bad or will be bad, once too large. I quickly pull it out then take the pic.

Learned that one the hard way. I had an acro eating crab in my system for weeks and I couldn't find the buggard cause I was busy snapping a thread pic. I couldn't pull him out so I thought I stabbed him to death and it was just chilling in a bored out tunnel in the rock.

That looks really nice. It's worth investigating and see what it likes to eat.

that is pretty... not gross at all... better finding that than the evil worm homie took amazing macro shots of...

 

[wickedfish]

Lol Gumbii it was like he was telling the worm "work it baby!" "no, no, no!" "tight turn!" "who loves you?"

No im pretty sure planaria, I think most nudis have external gills (the spikes on the back). Also the black stuff is a chambered intestine if i remember right. which is a trait of planaria.

I could be wrong though. I'd need to do more research.
