Well, I was moving a small frag puck today with zoo's on it and found these two little buggers on it. Looked everywhere for more but didn't find any (altough i'm sure there must be tons). Anyway, are they faltworm? or what are they? They are about 4mm-5mm in lentgh and are pretty hard to the touch. Havn't tried to look for what they are yet because i'm sure i'll get an answer quicker from you guys. Thanks

How hard did they stick themselves to the frag puck?

I have found some in my tanks. As far as I know they are harmless. I haven't read anything on them however.
