"For more background information on Cirolanid isopods, check out Pills, Parasites, and Predators; Isopods in the Reef Aquarium by Dr. Ron Shimek. If you think you have Cirolanid isopods, be sure to check out the pictures of the Sphaeromatid isopods in this article. They are commonly mistaken for Cirolanid isopods when people first discover them in their aquariums, but Sphaeromatids are beneficial scavengers that should remain in your tank. You can quickly check to see if your isopods are Sphaeromatids by isolating one of them and seeing if it can roll up into a ball. Sphaeromatids can do this while most other isopods, including Cirolanids, cannot. More information on Cirolanid isopods can be found at the following links:

Again from that artical, checking to see if it can roll up into a ball to see if it is a Sphaeromatid isopod or a Cirolanid iso.

 

I think it may be the bug from "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan"
