Help Identifying A Hitchhiker

[J4M3S]

Hi, I have looked in the hitch hiker section and can't find a match for this one ive got, It bury's itself in the sand making it very hard to see, i only noticed it because of its big eyes! it has 6 legs by the looks of it. I waqnt to know if it will harm any snails, shrimp or fish if it does then it will be pulled out but if it is harmless it can stay so can anyone identify it for me please? cheers.

I came across something like that in my Rio tamnk earlier this week... Turned out to be a drogonfly nymph!

About a month ago, I found what looked like a newly hatched damselfly in the tank, which decided to explore the world after spending about 30 hours on my fish net on the window ledge...

thanks for the help mate, i have gogoled dragonfly nymph and it is exactly what this looks like, should i removed it (when I can find it!) and them move it to an outside pond or is it safe to live in there with my rummy tetra. shrimp and snails?

cheers

That's so sad

Little fishy trying to escape up to the last minute... It's still not as bad as people feeding rabbits to their snakes. There were once a lot of videos on youtube of that, feeding rabbits to their snake claiming it to be a natural for them yet if the rabbit tried to retaliate they would kick it/hit it. Just sounded like a sadistic way of feeding something.

yeah thats pretty cruel i dont agree with that kind of thing
although the point of the video was do you really want 1 of these in your tank with your favourite fish
