List of "Bad" things in a tank???

Blue ringed octopus. Better have some metal forceps for in-tank maintence.

DAMSELS!

Unfiltered tap water
Big chem level flux's
I didn't care for an emerald crab that, to get under anything, would lift it, and shuffle under. Everything was falling!
This list is fun...

How about a bunch of Blue Legs and some scarlets in one tank?

MarVida just posted a thread about pyramid sails. Guess they can kill other snails and clams. Hadn't heard that one either!!

Your hand is the best ever. About a year ago someone did a piece on this. Might have been Sammy. I'd love to see it ressurected. I'd ask if anyone else saw this, but I guess I'm in the New Hobbyist forum.

The LFS owner told me about a woman who had some sort of condition that required her to put some sort of cortizone cream on her hands and wrists... He put her hand in the tank for one reason or another and killed everything in her 72g tank w/in a half of a day... (or so the story went)

[joemack]

zibnata, Whats up with the Sally Lightfoot Crab? I have not heard to much about theses guys. I thought they were nice??

 

[aarone]

whelks are definately a bad thing. how about CC or a UGF?

 

[zibnata]

Joemack , It seemed ok untill it got big.It would attack hermits and then one night when lights were off it was trying to get into a clam.It got huge and just seemed mean.There is a thread on another forum that tells of all kinds of horrer stories.

The Sally in mine also has been a great add.
Individule experiences may, however, vary.

 

[joemack]

i decited nothing is going in my tank that is mean or might be. Except the blue hermits I got from this place. I wish I could of payed more and just got the happy red ones!. After having a agressive south american tank is so nice to see happy things and not a 14" fish try an attack you when you go to admire your tank. Thanks for the info.

 

[zibnata]

TimO , how long have you had it and how big is it. I loved watching mine for months and when it got bigger oooboy.I hope you have better luck with yours
