i have had my tank set up for about 2 weeks now. i got 4 fish and 4 rocks from a friend.
I was just checking out the tank in the dark with a flashlight and saw some things i did not expect to see. Little grey crawly things, almost like rolly pollies but lighter in color. they wer running in and out of the holes in the rocks and i think the were just out to feed.
Any idea what these are? good or bad? :confused:
