Little brown jellyfish

Bear · 04-27-2008, 10:00 PM

So I just started noticing these little brown jellyfish in my girlfriends reef. I think at most I've counted up to 5 at a time. Should I be worried or should I just let them be?

How small?
We've found really tiny brown jelly-fish looking things swimming in one of our tanks in the past and they're actually just hydroids. The small brown ones we had were harmless.

sounds like what I have. I would say they are about half the size of my smallest finger nail.

just to create a record, what I found were hydroids.

I sure miss having a salt water tank and finding all kinds of cool critters.

I think I might have to make the next one SW.
