Awesome, thanks!

So even tho this one has 6 legs it is a brittle star? COOL! That was great luck then...thanks so much!

I just came home with some live rock & polyps and am in the process of aclimating and found what looks like a very small, light brown star-fish looking creature, looks very much like a Brittle Star but has 6 appendages? Is this a Brittle Star or something else? I appreciate any clues!

Thanks, you're right, I looked it up after your post and it definitely was a bristleworm - I say was because I pulled it out of the tank :-)

I was looking at my tank and examining closely and found this strange looking centipede type worm - I'm sure this isn't the one that is clicking, but can anyone tell by this pic if this is a baby Mantis or something? It's very centipede like, lots of legs, oval body, looks the same on both ends...

I've heard way too many bad things about both to want either! I don't want to lose my lovely fish to a big mean invader :-) Thanks all!

The clicking sounds more like something being thrown, not rapid-fire like. My tank is in our living room and the sound woke both my husband & me up, so pretty loud! I can't imagine who would want one of those things, but I'll take your advice - I'll call my LFS and ask them if they want it...

Could it have been in the tank for over a year and just now getting big enough to be a problem? And I've heard that fish will start disapearing - I assume this is when they get to be the size this one must be - I can't believe I haven't seen it!!! Thanks everyone - I'm getting the trap today!

Hello, I have a two year old 55 gallon tank - water quality is at optimum levels in all regards. All livestock has been in the tank for at least a year except for a new addition a little over a month ago - I lost my cleaner shrimp (evidently just died of natural causes due to his age) and...

Hi, it will be difficult for you to keep the water levels healthy in a 10 gallon - 55 gallons is the minimum recommended for a saltwater tank - even a QT tank needs to be larger than 10 gallons (20? min.)- however, there are more experienced aquarists on these boards than me and that's just my...

binxdakat - thanks! I really like it - want to add maybe a bit more live rock and get a solid color background, but I'm really pleased at the look as well..... Shnabbles - we have an Emporer 400 which has 2 bio-wheels and we have a protein skimmer; regular PC lights - the two anemone's I have...

So, feed them that way everytime I feed them...gotcha...thanks!

do you soak their food in garlic every time you feed, or once a week, or what?

Originally posted by DaveB I wonder if using Damsels to cycle your tank is what makes them mean... Maybe living thru that does something to them.. I did not cycle my tank with live Damsels and mine are not mean at all.... :) I didn't use mine to cycle my tank and it is most definitely a...

Originally posted by lionfish12 I dont like the barbie face thing. ( but you if like it then fine ) your choice Actually it's not Mayan, it's a replica of one of those Easter Island statues...my mistake! Just wanted to clarify that one :)

Thanks for the complement and for the advice! I have had such trouble with that background, and I really want a solid blue background or even black? Anyway, I didn't know about wetting it either, no wonder mine won't stick!! As for the anemones, I have read (and read, and read :-) and most of...

And one of my Curly Q anemone's...

This is a pretty good pic of the anemone...

Yes it actually is, not alot but maybe enough to cause it distress...I guess I can't get it off it's rock, I can re-arrange the rock to where it's more toward the bottom, will let you know how that works out...thanks!!! (again!!!)

Here's the 'happy' curly q...BIG difference in the two....
