What am I?
While looking at the tank today my hubby found this hitchhiker. He is a little speedy demon zip all around the glass. We also found a little feather duster. I am still having a major alkalinity problem, 15.7. The Calcium is being raised slowly. Mr Bubbles is not doing good at all.

Glad to see that you found out what it is. Luckily I've never seen flatworms of any kind in my tank, good or bad. A wrasse would eat most critters like worms, pods, etc. What are you current alkalinity and calcium measurments? How much calcium are you dosing daily?

This is so fustrating. I am trying so hard to keep these in check. How many newbie mistakes can I make? For all the reading I did it did not prepare me enough. All my softies are doing great. My green mushroom has grown to almost 2". Blushy is extending more and more each day. The green zoos have given me a couple babies. The red zoos are doing great. And last but not least the other mushrooms are growing too.
