well i am getting into adding new things into my tank for the first time in a while, and i decided to turn a new leaf (from my oooooold ways) and make sure i dont add anything into the DT i did not want. starting off primarily with a lugols dip for all corals. i was originally going to do this only with new SPS, but i when i purchased a coral i have been waiting for (aquacultutred yellow fiji leather frag) i decided to dip it.
AND WOW what a potential disaster i saved myself.
i was showing a friend the process and as i walked away, he said "wow here is something coming out."
I walk over and see what looked like a white worm going back into a hole on the rock. now i got quite interested to see just what this was. 5 seconds later the truth emerged.
i dont know the species exactly, but an almost bleach white / cream white mantis shrimp came out of the rock!!!!
anyway i caught him, have him in a 5g with some rock and a bucket if someone wants him. about 1.5" long.
this pic i tried to clean up with a crappy photo editor. i think he is whiter...
just goes to show ya!
