I have seen a couple of them in my tank. I did not deliberately add them. I actually remove these two this morning.
 
Jip, little hitchiker's. At one stage I had hundreds of them in my tank. They have a way of getting into he powerheads, chopping them up, yhen the bits grows into many more provided there are enough food for them. Apparently harlequin shrimp will eat them. I got mine under control by manual removal and algae comtrol
