so as i was watching my tanks something caught my eye. it looksed like a tiny 1cm centipede or something. it was active searching the sand bed for food or something. its body resembled like a mantis shrimps body and has 2 antena. what could it be? do baby mantis shrimp start out that small?
only got a camera phone wit bad resolution

My guess is it is a pod

i dont think so. they dont look like any other pods in my tnaks. iv even stirred up the sand bed before and seen huge pods iv never seen before in my tank. this looks like a centipede but moves around like a shrimp, not a bug

Check the amphipods, does it look at all like those?
