    Bristleworms??

    Took off my Remora protein skimmer for what I felt was a much needed cleaning.(was that a mistake?) Found several of these in the goop in the bottom if the body of the skimmer. Rinsed them off with tank water an put them in the skimmer cup til I figure out what to do with them. Thoughts? Thanks

    overrun with baby brittles?

    Bought a couple of brittlestars from swf.com about 1 1/2 yrs ago for our 120 reef tank..Theyve probably doubled in size(10-12" tip to tip, at least), and right now, with just a quick search of the rocks, could easily find 100 sets of tiny legs poking out, feeling around the rocks. These are all...

    new tang?

    I have a large Hippo, a med-lrg yellow and a med-large naso in a 120 gal...Anyone see any problem with adding a powder brown? The 3 get along well, some occasional sparring between the hippo and naso, but only when cleaning up the last scraps of dinner it seems. Also a Maroon clown, but didnt...
