Little bugs everywhere

[Kevin Polap]

Hi, I have asked a question about these bugs before, they are all over my glass and look like little suns in egg form, just wanted to make sure these are harmless? Cause they are floating all through my tank now, they look like tiny bubbles floating around, does anyone know of a fish that eats these? I have a grouper tank so can't have anything too small like a mandarin goby. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks, Kevin

Can you post some pictures?

 

[Kevin Polap]

I can't seem to get a good enough picture, they are pretty small, sorry

 

[hackteck]

maybe their pods of some kind perhaps?

 

[Kevin Polap]

That's what I'm thinking, I'm sorry I can't get pics right now, I'll try again later after work

 

[hackteck]

yea if their pods their gonna be REALLY tiny so its sometimes hard to take pictures of them

 

[Kevin Polap]

Yeah must be pods, I think they are just floating around everywhere right now cause I just clean the glass and scraped them off.

 

[Kevin Polap]

Best pic I could get of them, best way I can describe the eggs for these things is tiny white dots with little arms that make it look like the sun

 

[hackteck]

yea probably pods

It`s pods. I`ll post a good link on them when I get home.

Awesome! Any suggestions on what critters or fish I can get to keep the population under control? I have a grouper predator tank so that limits me already :/

Not sure if there's any fish you can put with your groupers that will help control the pods. Most Angel, Butterfly, Hawk and Wrasse, some shrimp, any sand shifting gobys will eat them as they are part of there diet
