I've been freaking out for about 20 minutes of my life _I'll never get back. Trying to decide why I can't see any of the attachments. Thanks for having this thread. I can now go back to my life an log on in another 3 months. :notsure:

When did you find it? Are you comfortable having it in a reef?

Originally posted by ViPeR_930 Just a mantis shrimp, about 1" long. Did you capture it and take to work? Was it a peacock?:eek:

I just discovered a baby brittlestar on LR that I've had for at least a year. Do they not grow very rapidly? Also, I've got some strange spider like webbing forming on the underside of one of my rocks. I'll try to post up a pic during water change tomorrow. Rhonda

Saw your post on fraging the yuma Thomas............great read! Too bad about the pics though. Would have been great to see the process step by step.

sigh:rolleyes: I sooo used to trust you for help. So, I'll just come in one night and they'll be sauteing my corals as a sidedish? What I mean is, will my shrooms start to look stressed or discolored? What should I watch for?

Originally posted by timsedwards The second one is unusual, not used to aiptasia on glass. 99% of the time it comes on liverock and stays there, as it needs a hole to retreat into for protection. At least if it is aiptasia, as its on glass, I would just get a hobby knife and cut right along the...

I still love the royal gramma and the clowns. Have fun whatever you choose!:yes:

Originally posted by Bang Guy There are at least two schools of thought with the Fireworm vs Bristleworm. That's the problem with common names, there's no concensus. 1 - Fireworms are a specific colorful Specie of Carribean Polychaete named Hermodice carunculata that eats soft corals such as...

This is a GREAT thread and a perfect example of why I joined this board in the first place. I too have a massive colt coral doing really well. (bought it from SWF of course:D ) I will use this as my example when I'm brave enough to give my first effort to fraggin it! Rhonda

Are they the same? I seem to have hundreds in my tank lately. Seem harmless enough, but would they do me some damage if I inadvertantly touched one while cleaning and reorganizing my tank? They are light pink in color and have a caterpiller look to them. Thanks Rhonda

Thomas - That is one cool critter. Is he yours? Are they hard to manage? I've heard that you need to be really careful with them.

Thomas that's beautiful.......What is it? I've only seen a handful in my tank so I wouldn't term it invested. It just bothered me to see them on my colt coral. I will siphon for awhile and see how that goes. Thanks for the advice on carbon and remedies everyone. Rhonda

well mine are a reddish brown and they seem to love my coral. What can be done if anything? Thanks for all the responses BTW. Rhonda

Hey there, I've got these little tissue-like round worms (?). They've appeared on the glass a time or two and if you push them off they kind of twist through the water until they land elsewhere. any ideas on what they are and if they are a problem to my tank? Thanks! Rhonda

Seemed to be more milky and cloudy to me. How does that work Thomas? Will they throw their crowns before spawning? The process lasted for about 30 minutes after I last wrote. Thanks for you insight! This is pretty facinating! Rhonda

Hey there, I'm new to feather duster's, but I have been enjoying the one I purchased from SWF.Com! Last week it threw it's crown so I immediately checked my parameters but all's within norm. The tank's extremly healthy. Lot's of pods, worms, things as yet unidentified;-) My best guess is -...

Originally posted by Kip4130 ... all that i have ever opened that was in a bag has smelled pretty bad...i think it is normal. Tee hee. In the interest of time I have added the sand. I'm testing the water. The amonia has only trace amounts so I should be ok. My system has been running for...

Live Sand. Yes, I have an email into SWF.com but I was hoping for a more timely answer. :happyfish

Just recieved my LS order from SWF.com. This is my second order and is very unlike the first in that it really stinks. Smells like turbo snail die off heaven. What do you experts advise I do? Is this okay to just put right in the tank or what? Thanks! Rhonda
