I just went down stairs and out of the corner of my eye I saw something swimming all around the tank. Only the moon lights are on so I can not see it good but it is darting around the tank like crazy. Appears to be around 1/2 inches long and will not hold still long enough for me to see it. Swims really fast then it disappeared into the rock. Any ideas on what it could be? I know this is vague but it is the best I can do right now. PS. I just got 350 pounds of keys and gulf rock wed. that it came in on.
 
its your aiptasia's secret air force ;P

*where they wearing the red or the blue bandanas?*
 
Not a shrimp. Its thing swam like crazy for about 2 minutes then disappeared. Swam to the water surface to bottom left right etc. It swam like a hyperactive fish. I could not even focus on it so I could not tell if it was wearing a bandana or not. Like I said moonlights are the only light source. At least my wife saw it so I know I am not going crazy....well I mean she saw it too. Maybe it was a secret weapon from a under water area 51?
 
lol It was probably a worm. They like to show themselves sometimes and dart around the tank.
 
Brenden it was a worm ... The other night I had the same thing happen in my nano and I was freaked! I managed to keep an eye on the thing and it finally made it to a rock and settled down stretched out and disappeared into the rock!

Pretty crazy indeed ... especially how fast it was swimming!!
