"We may define "faith" as a firm belief in something for which there is not evidence ... Where there is evidence, no one speaks of "faith". We only speak of faith when we wish to substitute emotion for evidence."

A while back while observing my tank happenings i noticed something dart across the bottom and go under some rocks. I tried to locate it so i could figure out what it was. Today while looking around i noticed a small head with antenna, all i could think was a cricket. A cricket?... Searching around the web i finally came across some images of creatures in a a reef tank. Low and behold, the cricket, an Amphipod and what  I've read there very good for tanks. Is this little guy like cockroaches where if you see one you've got more?

Most definately, check your tank out after the lights have been off for a while. Mine is swarming with pods, yours could be too.
