hey lowlife looks good. so you feed your flame scallop? i have one and every chance i get i catch him and place him in a tuperware dish and dump some DT's down his throat. i had a electric flame scallop before and he died then i found this technique on this sight and so i got another one and he is doing great and has grown around 1/2 and inch. i'll snap a pic when i get the chance.

the crabs now gone. he was given to me but kept messing up all the rocks (too big for a 30 gal.). I got a decorator crab instead.
