ceastman Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 So I found this in my filter sock this morning (is this how these always start...): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jestep Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Polyclad flatworm. Lucky catch because they're very difficult to remove from a display tank. This type is a clam predator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceastman Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Hmm I don't have any clams. Wonder what it's been eating Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposedly they don't need to eat often at all, so if it was a hitchhiker, it may just be slowly starving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Had this exact species show up in my nanocube way back in the day. Coolest thing in the world to watch them move around but I did lose a lot of snails in that tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceastman Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 yeah I have lost some snails recently which is odd but now explainable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coolest thing in the world to watch them move around but I did lose a lot of snails in that tank. Totally creepy how they almost flow over whatever they're moving across. I remember someone on ARC having a massive one a few years ago. I think these ones have been measured at 8"+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Like moving water over a rock... very hypnotic movement for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
