WTH is this?

[mhayes462]

Bought my biocube from someone else. I took out the bio balls and the stock pump. All over them are these hard worm and shell looking things. And I had to clean out a lot in the bottom of the chambers. What are they?

Hey it's better than discovering a foot long amphipod in your aquarium!

yep... soak in hot water with a bit of vinegar to clean off/out the pump before putting it into use
