    I noticed 2 days ago a few of these tiny little things crawling in and out of my rock and around my one mushroom coral. They are very small 1/4" black spine and pretty much a clear body with 2 antennas. They crawl on my LR and in and out of holes. Anyone have a clue that they are and how tonged rid of them? :-/

    Don't get rid of them. You want living creatures in your tank!

    My mushroom coral isn't as big as it was 2 days ago, it used to be about 2" dia but it's shriveled up. On the one side I see an expansion underneath and atop that it looks to be 2 small mushrooms poking out? What's going on here?
