What is this? Is this a Dragonfly?

Post by Cameron »

I found this creature in my freshwater tank. Can anyone positively identify what it is?

It looks to me like a dragonfly nymph, but I'm not sure. I've isolated it in a bottle with a top on just in case- I don't want a dragonfly or goodness knows what else spontaneously flying around my bedroom. If it is a dragonfly, then I'll just let it go outdoors once its matured.
