Hitchhikers

[orange shark]

Hello,

spotted some recent hitchhikers and i dont think they are at all good. I spotted an insect!?!? on the backof my tank about 10 mins ago and also a purple/black slug type thing. Any idea what they can be?

Thanks,

orange shark

the "insect" is probably an amphipod or copod. Purple and black slug sounds like a nudibranch.

thanks, its definately an amphipod, im guessing as soon as my fish see it they eat it?

it doesnt look like any nudibranch on there but it could possibly grow into one
