It is a Wheel Bug (named for the wheel on its back.) It is considered beneficial in that it eats insects that are harmful to crops. But if you grab it (on purpose or by accident, working with plants) it stings. If you are working where there are a lot of them, it's advisable to wear gloves.

Wheel Bug, one of the assasin bugs. Be very careful about handling it - that beak delivers a very potent and painful bite.

Wow! That's a pretty interesting bug! Looks vicious, but I have no idea what it is.

that sounds like a leech... leeches hang onto creatures and suck on their blood. fortunate you chanced on it and did no longer bypass away it interior the pool. edit: in case you discover one on you, you may desire to bodily pull it off, yet this would tear the floor which will then grow to be contaminated.
