Can ya post a picture? some are really bad and some are really good -- hard to tell until we ID the bugger. Careful not to touch it if you pull it.

Lets ID it quickly - they multiply fast (real fast). If its bad and must go the simplest way is to pull the rock and flush it out. but lets start with seeing it if we can.

My tank probably has several hundred of them. There are so many different kinds, but most are harmless. You probably have nothing to worry about. You will drive yourself nuts if you try to keep them out of your tank! A pic would be great though. Dave
