    bitten by Hemodice Carunculata. Not happy.

    Try the Blue Ring Octopus :) Its sting is fatal :) As for the worm, if you do get bit, one of the best things to do is cut off as much circulation to the area and head straight to the doctor :) (speaking from experience).

    Emerald Gestation

    I have searched high and low and cant find it. I saw the most amazing thing tonight (2 emeralds mating). Does anyone have any info on their gestation? Are they live breeders or Egg breeders? Is there anything I need to watch for? -Ryan

    NEW LIVE ROCK

    My biggest jump was i a 39 gallon. It was a fish only tank for a while, and I decided to go reef. With the fish still in it and everything still moving I added 70 poinds (to the existing 20) of live good cured live rock. I didnt loose a single critter, and my water levels never moved. Call...

    green crab

    Emerald Crabs will be one of the most productive members of your reef setup. I have an emerald that litterally burrowed underneath of a very large (8 inch base) long tentacle anenome. He lives there and comes out to eat all the time. He loves to eat the things the anenome drops. He is a...

    stupid anemone

Put your hand underneath of the anenome and gently massage the foot until it releases (and it will if you massage its trunk). Then...

    which corals to buy for new 125 reef?

    I have the neatest Mushrooms. I have never seen them for sale in a store, but got them off of a private add. They are flourescent green, and when the lights are on they light up as if they are plugged in. Its phenominal. Im a fan of Elegance, bubbles, mushrooms, and Sun Polyps. :)

    thousands of tiny starfish in my livesand

    I could almost garuntee you that they are brittles! You are very lucky and should be excited. I had the same luck tonight with a piece of soft coral (on live rock) that was LOADED with brittles. I put them all into a hospital tank so that I could keep them safe until they grew a little bigger.
