Well, as some of you might have read, i just got my rock from tb saltwater the other day. Everything is doing great, i just have a few questions.
1) As i was expecting i discovered a quite large mantis shrimp who hitchhiked in. My eel actually led me to him, he was hunting the shrimp and almost got him i might add. Anyway, what is the best way to catch these guys??
2) My rock came in with 7-8 clams on it. Many of them i can see are openeing a little hit and then they will close every so often. Some are also upside down i can tell, but still open a little. Will they eventually open all the way like the beautiful ones i see or will thy continue to do what they are doing. Also can the ones that are upside down flip over or will they stay the way they are, or can i move them?
3) I have something on the one of the rocks that looks like a huge sea apple almost but it stays in one spot. It is about 3-4 inches long and about 1.5-2 wide, a big oval shaped thing. Very colorful. It has a hole in the side of it and one in the end. Most of the time they are both oen but occasionally they will shut and the thing squeezes together and water shoots out. Any ideas on what it might be??
Thank you very much and sorry it is so long.
