Eight-legged friend

So obviously when you find gross things in your tank, you need to share them. Well here you go—I went to check-in my refugium earlier this week and found a spider crawling around! My best guess is that it’s a diving bell spider that came in as an egg with my copepods or macroalgae shipment. But I have no idea. I’ve named him Aragog and I’m hoping he enjoys bristleworm. Though seriously if any of you have seen anything like this before in your tank, let me know. I didn’t know spiders could even live in water. (I also won’t be putting my hand in my fuge again without wearing gloves!)
