WOW Tizz you are a pod magnet.... holy crap. First you find some at the beach and now you get tagged in your tank. Must be something about you they like!!

Thats awesome... errr ummm I mean wow... thats messed up.
 
I had them come in on a load of live rock once. They wiped out every fish in the tank in a matter of weeks. I had to let the tank sit empty for almost 9 months so that they would starve to death. It really sucked!!!

PD your funny!
But your right about what you wrote before! These "bad" pods do not curl up in a little ball when threatened. I tried.
IDK how to tell if I have more.

I'm not sure what I'm gonna do. I'm thinking in a couple more weeks to put in a "bait" fish at night, just to see...
This is tough cause as I speak, I'm starving out the ick, all this unexpected crap means anything I try is either a risk to my fish or a risk to my yank.

I guess I need to wear gloves now.
don't bother. Unless they come all the way up to your shoulders.
I did notice that they dislike light very much, so if you just put a flashlight on the tank before putting in your hands they most likely won't come after you.
Least that's my hope as I continue feeding my LPS's.

Now is the time to invite your friends over to feed your tank
