What is climbing up the glass?

Damn it, I'm a bit late.

French bedbug I was going to suggest.

They don’t host any known fish parasites so they’re perfectly safe, although they will eat baby shrimp… (will they? I might have read that wrong). Their numbers are governed by the amount of food available to them (algae, biofilm, etc).

I'll have to sterilise equipment more thoroughly between tanks, I think. I would think shrimp zoes would be quite fast for them though.

To keep or not to keep? I've only seen two so far, but as Fishy is a batchelor Betta, the limpets might be getting a frugal diet. I'm glad to hear that they don't carry any nasties that might make him sick, thank you

I vote keep them. Something a bit unusual in your tank and harmless.

[Anubia]

OK, they can stay

Don't worry folks, I'll send him some Frontline flea treatment.

I have these in my two tanks. They used to bother me and I went through several Esha gastropex treatments to try and get rid of them. The gastropex would kill 99% of them, but only one needs to survive to restart the population, and one would always survive!

I accept them now.
