creepy crawly on LR

[nicreef]

about to shift to new tank and i spotted this crawling on my LR. Beneficial or pest? and what is it?!

still trying to decide if i should take our my current LR to sun dry first or just transfer....

Looks like an isopod but photos too blurry.

hmm cant find them on the rock today...they are really tiny and hard to find...

took 20 pics those 3 are the best liao haha...anyway think i will just remove all my rock and dry before adding to new tank.

You will need them more if you plan to keep a mandrin and you will find them not enough..

oo ok was worried coz i read that some isopods can be a pest too.

definately intending to in my tank going to wait at least a month or 2 to let the pod population grow before adding anything fish.

btw which would be better? remove all rock sun dry them make sure no pest or transfer current rock directly to new tank? just saw another creepy on my LR. this one looks like a centipede...

Since u r going to start a new tank, I prefer to start cleanly, take no risks

that is a bristleworm. Once they get big, they might attack fish and coral so better to remove.
