Like the jellyfish, hydroids can pack a powerful stinging punch. The sting from hydroids is considerably more powerful than that of most corals. They will tend to prefer your sps and lps and will grow over their skeleton; soft corals are less likely to be bothered because they do not provide ample space.

This species has been found in a fish farm and also in a abalone aquaculture center in Japan. It seems the species has a high rate of asexual reproduction under favorable conditions. Even one jellyfish accidentally introduced in an aquarium may increase in a population of hundreds within a few months if the conditions are really good.
So my filter has been sitting with the water that was in it when I stopped using it and I was getting ready to dump it when I saw movement in the water.

Welcome Jack. Corals are members of the same group of animals as jellyfish and sea anemones, the Cnidaria. The actual coral animal or polyp is soft bodied, with tentacles like a sea anemone. The main difference is that corals secrete an external calcium carbonate skeleton and sea anemones do not. The hard skeletons (branching,mounds, etc ...
I was able to rescue him thankfully and he's doing fine. Is there any way I can prevent this in the future. I read about trying those plastic screens they sale in crafts at walmart (the kind you thread yarn through and make designs, can't think of what they are called) but when I place them in front of the teeth it restricts flow WAY too much.
At my LFS (Tropicorium, an amazing place) they keep the shrimp in the same tank for sale and tell me that the shrimp do fine. Live Aquaria states about the Blood Shrimp, "While it will tolerate its mate, others of its own kind will be chased away or harassed." Another LFS tells me that usually with two different types of shrimp, one will ...
