Message: <blockquote data-quote="katiekatelyn" data-source="post: 31115" data-attributes="member: 2931"><p>I put a light tan kidney-shaped water dish in my larger l.parahybana's ten gallon tank yesterday and noticed today something floating in it. Closer inspection revealed it to be the tiniest little floating bugs I ever saw in my life, a lot were clinging together which is the only reason I even noticed them. Is this cause for a freak out? What are they, and can they spread to my other tanks/enclosures? The substrate is less than 2 months old and I'm pretty good at spot cleaning. I'd appreciate some feedback. I just did three tank changes yesterday I'm out of substrate (and my car is dead so the pet store is currently out of the question).</p></blockquote><p></p>
