yerp, stomatella and a turbo. Both good, stomatella will breed like rabbits, but you should only see them at lights out. My frag tank glass is almost solid with them at night :P

Hundreds of them though is annoying, they are crawling all over my Dendros and making them close up.

Yes thats how I noticed them, I have a new light so my old light used to turn off at 11pm, but the new one I am running until 8pm so I have been noticing more things at night.

I would be very happy to buy a whole bunch of Stomatella from you !!! I used to have some but had to kill some worms and in the end all my stoms died too. It would be great to get a breeding population started.
