Can anyone ID this!!!

[gasguzzler]

I noticed this thing in the 10 gallon a couple of months ago and have not been able to find anything similar for comparison. No one seems to have any ideas. It comes out at night with the lights on and reaches around on the rock. It has never fully emerged and seems to keep to itself. Please:help:

To be more specific I would even say an Ocellaris clownfish.

[gasguzzler]

touch it. See if it bites you or swims away?? Or pinches you or stings you

 

[gasguzzler]

It doesnt swim, it just comes out of its hole and looks around. There are no visible eyes, mouth, teeth, legs, claws, etc. Only what you see in the picture. I took that pic because thats the farthest its ever come out.

 

[innsmouth]

Man, I have no idea but I'm really curious.

 

[gasguzzler]

I was affraid of that. Its been driving me crazy.:scared:

 

[comet_nut]

I think it is a nudibranch of some description, does it have antenne?

 

[gasguzzler]

Negative, what you see is what you get.

I bet you bang might know what it is.

 

[gasguzzler]

He tried in the reef forum, but I havent heard anything from those guys in a while. I guess they dont like us "aggressive people".

Looks like a copepod It might be from the indian Ocean.
Your fish might Eat it, if its not to big.

What is a copepod? Just curious, is it something out of the planarian family (forget the scientific name - Cnidaria?)
