Am I correct? (1 Viewer)

This white speck showed up in my DT today, stuck to the glass. It’s about 1/16th inch long. Barely visible. The photo is 12 times magnified and that’s the best pic I could get.
My guess is berghia nudi. If I’m right I don’t see how. The nudi’s I bought were put in the sump and the only route to the DT is through the return pump, which one would think would kill a soft tissue organism.
Thoughts please……

Definitely looks like a nudi. And yeah, it’s not likely that it made its way to the display tank, but I’ve seen stranger things happen in my tanks.

I have dipped and QT’ed everything in the main tank so I wouldn’t suspect it being a hitchhiker, but like you said….. stranger things have happened.

A lot of small critters can make it past the return pump and into the display. Pods, for example.

That's a berghia.. congrats

I have had berghia get past a roller filter, avoid the skimmer, then ride the return pump without any issues.

Many things get past return pumps.
