I have some algae starting to grow in my tank and decided to put to use my kids' microscope. This was on a small white thread-like particle attached to a rock. There are actually many of them.
Can anyone name this guy?

Yeah, some kind of small nematode. I don't know if they're that well documented in marine aquaria, but they are certainly common in mature sandbeds and algaes.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
