:Eeewww: Dragonfly Nymph (http://images.google.ca/images?hl=en&q=dragonfly+nymph&btnG=Search+Images&gbv=2)?

I merged the two threads to make it a little easier for those wondering what is going on...lol.

I dont think so but who knows... I have seen mosquito and dragon fly Nymphs before and they have like a million legs this just has three on each side..

Daugher almost jumped out of her chair when I showed her that critter....

I should google dragon fly nymgh for pictures / thanks for the help

[corrosionjerry]

Had a look at some pictures... likely is in the dragon fly or damselfly familly / only thing different is the rear quarter of this critter... it has a tail like a lyre tail guppy where the pictures have an oval shaped rear quarter

Could be at a different stage of development maybe? Not a good thing to have in an aquarium at any rate. They like to eat babies. :wideeyed:

The Damsel Nymph has a lyretail.

Thanks for the help... I Think this critter is going to find its way to the North Sask river tomorrow

I found some creepy crawly in Cabomba once - freaked me right out. :Eek:
