jellyfish

[gunzo]

something is spawning these..

every now and then I see a small jelly floating.. then they disappear ( probably filtered out)

don't use sea water, doesn't match the times I buy new fishes..

so where they come from??

[somebody]

maybe a put them in

no offence bro! show us some pics. it'll be kewl.

anyone can answer bro gunzo?

hi there bro gunzo!

you have breeding jellyfish in your system?!! thats cool isnt it?

do you have some pics you could share with us? if only my system popped up some nice suprises like yours once in a while, rather than nasty suprises like a formerly undiscovered crab, etc.

cheers,

ian

This is something new.. we need pics..

[gunzo]

can't find it now..

I'll post when I find one.. takes a month or so

hydroids.. interesting.. I go check them out..

also got lots of worn like things from the sand (was told spaghetti worms good detritus worms but GROSS! )

confirm its a type of hydriod...at one stage of their life cycle, the r rooted to substrate..after some time, the stem breaks and they'll swim around like tiny jelly fishes...about 1-2 mm big only....its a very common thing in old tanks...i think almost every1 has it at one time or another.

hydriods sounds like some aliens from outer space.. hehe

Talking about it.. I seem to have them more at some stage.. I realised it few months back.. usually at stages I just see 2 or 3 at a time.. few days back I see about 7-8 of them swimming..

It doesn't do anything bad. and fishes ignore them.. most of the time the fishes will just gobble them and next second spit them out... alive. .

Pretty amusing to have them around too .

Nothing. And they seem to stay around that small little size. Swimming around then somedays I don't even see any. I saw some cling on rocks and just do that jellyfish pumping action.. .. pretty amusing if you ask me.
