Thanks eveyone.
It was a sad day in the Latini household today... Pete, my beta passed away last night. He lived a good life though and he will be missed greatly.

On some good news, Herman still lives. He's been cruising around the tank exploring his new home.
Ive been spending a lot of time in front of the tank checking out the LR and Ive noticed a few odd things... odd to me anyways.
1) I have what appears to be a stem (like a small branch) coming out of my LR that was broken or cut off. Ill try to get a pic. It is def. green and really looks like a stem of sorts.
2) Ive noticed small green "sprouts" on the large piece of LR. Doubtful Ill get any photos, just read my post in the Photo section. They look like, well.... sprouts. Not very tall. I have a larger one to the back. Im keeping my eyes on them.
3) Hydriods... I havent found any more lurking so I guess thats good. Im gonna take my rock out and see if I cant scrub them off.
4) Coralline, can stuff grow out from underneath it? Maybe it's damaged. Once again, Ill try to get a picture. Theres spots where it looks like it was damaged"?" And theres like a rusty colored "something" under it. In some cases, the rusty "something" appears to be growing out past the coralline.
Thats it for now...
Back to looking.
:happy:

Havent been able to find Herman. I havent even been able to find his shell so, ... I dunno.

What ya need to do is glue a small flashing light to his shell so you always know where he is

Sure, I could do that to all of my inverts. Each one gets a different color. Shut the lights off and Viola! Instant Nano Rave Party!
