Have you checked for sundial snails or zoa spiders?

I had an aquaripure denitrator. Would NEVER recommend it. It constantly clogged but I could handle the hassle of constant cleaning (messy/smells horrendous) for the nitrate tradeoff. I came home one day to a house that reaked of rotten eggs, a flow control valve failed resulting in a steady...

T-5's would suffice but that one looks pretty far gone.

What sucks is after Tebow leaves, Florida has Jordan Reed waiting. That guy is a machine.

I had one in my 54 reef for 2 years, until h-cane gustave hit. My LFS said they are not recommended because they ship poorly and have a hard time transitioning to captivity. Mine did fine although it sampled every coral in the tank.

My purple ripped up a powder brown that I tried to add. The pbt was in the the tank about 15 min, in the dark, and had 3 large gashes. AS pretty as purples are-- they can be mean as hell.

It's 4 inches. They had it labeled as "pink lemonade mantis."

Picked up my first mantis, the gonodactylus chiragra from the den. It has been in the tank for about two hours and has eaten 3 ceriths and 2 nass. What is a ballpark figure of how many snails these guys can take down before they are "full". Can't believe I waited this long to get one these...

They are shipped without water. This is in case one dies it won't cause an ammonia spike and kill them all. Nerites are shipped the same way. I had the same question from another company and that was the answer they gave. What happened to the anorexic avatar, that always gave me a chuckle.

Blue rings do not "mature and die very quickly" compared to any other octo. I personally know two reefers in New Orleans that each have one. One is going on 10 months and the other is right at a year. There are also a few on the big ceph forum that have kept blues for long periods. Blue rings...

Looks more like sponges.

A lfs here has them. He uses them for new finnicky eaters. He won't sell though. I used damsels before my lion took to frozen.

I do not really understand what all you are asking. Triggers will eat damsels.

The one with the tall mast is the juvi. spotted drum.

Looks like a juvenile spotted drum.
