No, it's definitely not a bristleworm. Wow, I thought for sure someone on this website would be able to tell me what it was. I thought ya'll knew evereything!:D So what would ya'll do about them? Are they safe? I'm getting creeped out by them, they're crawling up the glass now! They don't...

I really don't think it's bristle worms, there are no legs or fuzziness. They are very smooth looking like an earthworm would be, but they are extremely small & skinny.

ok, I've had my aquarium set up for a few months now and had only had "dead" base rock in it. I went to the lfs last week and bought an engineer goby which I absolutely love and a 1 lb. piece of "live rock". I was looking in the aquarium yesterday and noticed a lot of 1/4" long black lines on my...

It's really hard to get a pic they are so small - here is the best I could get. Yes - they are free moving.

What is a micro hermit and where do you get it? I didn't see any for sale on this site. I'll take a pic when I get home and post it of the coral.

I got them for clean-up crew. Are there better choices? I'm open to whatever as far as clean-up. I have crushed coral and it's getting an orangey-red burnt color to it. Is that good or bad?

It's definitely the shrimp. Molting was my first thought too, but it's big hunks of meat. I love having the cleaner shrimp though! My clowns absolutely loved being cleaned by him. Should I try another one, or take the emerald crab back to the lfs first?

I went home at lunch today and my cleaner shrimp was cut to pieces! Who did it? I have two clarkii clowns, two emerald crabs and a scooter blenny.

I bought 3 ricordea from swf and all three look different. How do you tell whether they are healthy or not? One is a pale pink color and waves all the time. One is light green and will wave every once in a while. The third is a darker green and is not as plump as the other two & doesn't...

Thanks so much!:D We're really enjoying them - they have a lot of character. They were really sick when we we got them, but have really bounced back. It's hard to see, but the one on the left has black dots on his tail. Is that normal?

Here's our new two little clarkii clowns - Nemo & Patterns! :D

addiction - definitely, but a fun one! :cool: I've had a lot of hobbies, but fishkeeping has been around for 30 years and just keeps getting worse. :eek:

I guess they are tank raised. I bought them from this site.

I've got another question - my clowns are now doing great and swimming all over, but when I went to clean the front of the tank they both ran and played dead till I finished. It's real cute, but how long will it take for them to trust me, or will they ever? :confused:

My cleaner shrimp molted in the bag on the way to my house from swf! Looked like I had gotten a bonus shrimp! :D

Update - both of my clowns are now swimming great and eating good and no more white film. I'm very relieved as before I treated with the furacyn, the small clown was at death's door and I thought there was no way he could make it.

I am curious about this as well, I received to Clarkii Clowns yesterday from swf which I have in qt. They were both covered in what I would describe as a white slime - stringy, not salty like ich. I medicated them with furacyn and this morning neither one has the white, and the larger one is...
