afrostyreefer November 10, 2020 Share November 10, 2020 Saw this guy for the first time today. Not sure if it's a Chiton, Sphaeromatidae or something else? If it wasn't in my tank, I'd just call it a roly-poly! TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReefdUp November 10, 2020 Share November 10, 2020 Any chance you got a top down photo? Back end photo? Definitely not a chiton (those are closer to snails/mollusks.) Sphaero maybe, but there are predatory isopods that look similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afrostyreefer November 11, 2020 Author Share November 11, 2020 I'll see if I can get one. It hasn't moved much. It was odd even seeing it as I used Life Rock, and have dipped all my corals. I did get a bottle of 5280 pods from Algae Barn about 4-5 weeks ago. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mogurnda November 11, 2020 Share November 11, 2020 An isopod. Looks kind of like Ligia. Does not look like a predatory species, but hard to say from the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
