Hitchhikers

Hitchhikers are very commonly encountered in marine aquaria, especially those with live rock. The pages here show some of the hitchhikers I have found in my tanks and may prove helpful in identifying hitchhikers found in other tanks. Other sites that are helpful for identifying hitchhikers include:

The references listed at the bottom of the page may also prove useful for identifying hitchhikers.

The pages are grouped by high level taxon of the organisms found. It may be necessary to look at all the pages.
