Are these Copepods ?

[sh2000]

I recently added 600 pods to my DT are these pods on the LR?

 

[sh2000]

the best way i can describe it is white thin stringy threads hanging on the LR...

 

[lucky?]

can't tell with no pic but no /coepods almost look like microscopic shrimp -stuff hanging from the live rock?, again no positive id maybe a stinger from a coral? prob not? worst case aptasia, and again prob not but a pic would help.

 

[sh2000]

trying to upload files..getting error message upload of files failed... anyone know if there's a prob with uploading files on this site at this time ?

I think it is still issues with their new software update, I can not upload from my PC at this time......

oh well just have to wait it out

Copepods are near microscopic: you can see them with the

[hr]
eye, but you can't really make out any features, not even with a magnifying glass. Definitely not "white thin stringy threads."
Do the threads move as if they were tentacles? If so, then likely a hair or spaghetti worm: beneficial, so don't worry about them. There are many many other things that fit this bill that live on LR though. Verm. snails are another possibility.

My Mandarin looks healthy what signs should I look for that would suggest that pods are not present ?

If your photos are in photobucket just copy the IMG code and paste it right into your message. This was explained to me just yesterday

. Hope this helps,
