How about this one?

 

[kathywithbirds]

now that actually looks familiar even to a newbie like me...

 

[lcstorc]

LOL! Didn't we already play the game with that Doni? If I remember right it was red bunny ear algae.

 

[Woodstock]

LOL Lynn, that's it

 

[lcstorc]

Finally! I was able to successfully identify something. LOL
One of the really fun things at MACNA was being able to sit next to Boomer while he was searching for an ID on something. It was really great particularly since what he first thought it was he later proved it wasn't. Right before my awestruck eyes.

 

[Woodstock]

Yep, Boomer is the bomb!

 

[lcstorc]

Pun intended. LOL

 

[BEELZEBOB]

ok then whats this lil guy? i found abunch on some macro algae i got months ago. they ate the algea and dissaapeared. but i do see one now and again.

 

[wonderloss]

Reminds me of a stomatella, though I have not seen them that bright.

 

[BEELZEBOB]

nope, soft shell, and about the size of a pencil eraser. good guess though!

 

[lcstorc]

Reminds me of this guy I found in one of my tanks.

If it is the same thing here is Boomer's ID

That is a Sap-Sucker a Sacoglossa. It is an algae eating slug. It is one of the Oxynoe sp. It looks like a Oxynoe viridis. It is often found with Caulerpa racemosa.
