probably nothing to worry about?

looks harmless maybe 1/2" long

pretty tiny creature. I didn't put him back in

I think maybe ~ I've got a good handle on the red algae. I turned my coral
life lamp around so the sand gets the blue light. Amazing what just a little
adjustment does. Thanks to you and that other guy too.

Nitrates are a lot better but still have a way to go. I'm hoping as the dsb
and the new LR cures......

I'm getting bubbles again. Nitrogen? Bright and shiny. I only get those if I
go awhile (5 days) w/o a h2o change. Usually means I need to change h2o,
but, I might have the nitrates under control.

I'll check my ph and phosphates, nitrates in the morning.

Jim,
I had some issues with bubbles forming on my tank too, but they went
away on their own as I let the tank age a bit...though fro mwhat I
recall your tank was an already existing systme just being reworked, so
its probably unrelated...
