So, I found a babyjellyfish-like organism in my tank this morning. It is very small, and is a single "medusa" type polyp that moves by contracting the top, much as a jellyfish does.

I narrowed it down to 2 things in my head. It could really be a baby jellyfish that somehow hatched within my liverock or something and is now a baby.

Or, seeing as how corals are also cnidarians, maybe this is the larval stage of an SPS. I remember learning something about larvae of corals having medusa like motility.

It is about 1 mm in diameter and is brown in color.

Of course this would happen on Eastrer when all the LFS's are closed...

Does anybody know anything about these? Thanks.
 
I've seen thne same thing in my nano. Agree with jelly fish. none have survived
