hatching Event . . .

BigAl07 · 02-16-2008, 02:05 PM

Not sure how but in all three tanks within 24 hours I had some type of hatching. I assume it's some type(s) of hydriods but not sure. These pics are from 3 different (not connected) tanks here in our house. Ideas?

djbacon has got it right. Hyrdo's.

1,2 and 5 are hydroids. 3 is a copepod and 4 is a flatworm.

Thanks gang

I wonder if the "lunar" cycle is what triggers all this "Action" in 3 different tanks at once. They aren't plumbed together and other than 1 ric and 1 frogspawn there's nothing in common with them except I mix all the new salt water for them at the same time. They don't share anything but the room they are in.
