I found this today on some
LR in my tank and I am not sure what it is. Sorry the picture is not very good, but where it is in the tank makes it hard to get a picture of it. It is red and about the size of a quarter around. The fingers on in stick up from the head only about 1mm or so. There are 3 of them right next to each other. Some others mentions maybe Yuma or Majano. But from the pictures I can find it doesn't look like either.

Here is a better picture of it. I was thinking it was a type of Ricordia but I am still just not sure.

That seem like the general consenses. From what I read they don't really need suplemental feeding. Is that correct?

Mine will take food when I give it to them. They curl up into little purses.
