hell no the parasites dont look like that lol...its just really tiny and white what should i do??



that REALLY doesn't help..

all of the things in the links i posted ARE really tiny... 'cept the last one :D
 
I think it may be copepods not positive though, what could i do to get rid of em? do i need to get rid of em? if i leave them will alot of them reproduce and like take over the tank
 
should be fine once the tank matures a bit. Will help when you get a fish or two added. fish eat them as a natural food source. rest easy and im thinking that once your tank settles down a bit you wont see a large population anyways.
 
i ment before the tank is finished cycling?? Its easier to add most all the LR that you want off hand, to avoid adding partially cured LR to an established tank. This could case an ammonia spike and cause stock die-off and another cycle. Something to think about.

You can cure in a different container before addition to the tank if you want, more work down the road though.
