Crazy micromussas? Oh man, youre going to have to hunt your food this week hahaha. Depends how crazy they are, then I might give my kidney for it. Pretty blastos you got there.
One more question about the fighting conch, do they live up to their name? Any problems with other snails, etc? I got margaritas, nassarius, and blue leg hermits

lol Paintballer768. I have never seen them attacking any snails or anything but i have seen one knock a hermit crab off its back when it was riding on it. that was funny to watch. But all they do is go around and eat algae off the glass and sandbed. I even have seen them climbing the glass. Its crazy cause they are like 2 or 3 inches long. Well yep i look forward to the new micros my lfs gets in next week or so :) Thanks again for yalls comments. Ill hit yalls page up later

Well about to go take me an hour drive and check out another Blasto :
The lfs said they had one that is 3 inches by about 1 or 2 inches for 30 bucks. LOL. He said it had fell into the sand though and lost some of its color. He said well i had bought it for 45 or 50 dollars but since it has lost some of its color ill sell it to you the way it is for 30 bucks. Ima go check it out. I dont really like this place because they have massive amounts of AIPTASIASSSSSS. Its like going into the dungeon of aiptasias when you walk inside. LOL.

OK now REBEL AND SUBIE , IM PUTTIN YALL IN 10 SPOTS since yall dont get back at me quick enough :( I mean come on. Its been over 10 hours and get no replies ? No one is anticipating my new coral ? thats cool. So anyways
I go about an hour drive to this lfs right to check out some bright red and green "BLASTOS" as the lfs says. So when i walk in the store i am looking at the 3 tanks they have with coral. Im thinking "um....not seeing any blastos" So i ask the guy who works there. Where is the blasto you told me about that flipped onto the sand. Oh its over here let me show ya he says. Um... im looking at it and im thinking a blasto ? LOL. Thats an ACAN ECHINATA AND IT WASSSS BEAUTIFUL. I was like um... how much did you say you wanted ? 30 bucks ? Let me give you 25. Well i cant since i paid well over 50 for it and i am just gonna sell it to ya for 30 becaue it lost some of its color and had fallen onto the sand. So i said ok pull it out for 30 dollars. HAHA THEN SAID UMM.. YOu do know this is an Acan Echinata right and the guy said yeah it is an acan. I was thinking. HOLD ON is it some sort of BLASTO ACAN HAHAHA. Some of these people think they know what they are talking about and really dont at all. HAHAHA. Well heres the pics :)
Acan Echinata .... anyone can tell me what name ? I think its one of those joker ones. Its AWESOME under my actinics. I took pics but my batteries died so only these with the daylights on.


oH AND that was literally 1 minute after i put it in the tank... I HAVE TO ALWAYS FEED EM. LOL.

Is your sun coral dying because of the lighting or water? I am guessing it is the lighting though. Well, I must say, you have a very sweet tank, I am planning on getting a 24g aquapod sooon to. Do you wish you had something besides the aquapod?

Rebelprettyboy, Thx for commenting again and actually reading :) YEAHHH IM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE MICROS.Should be getting em within a week or two i think :) Said they gonna get some crazy colors. And that lfs i went to today said they can get those blastos like i bought today pretty regularly so i asked him to order me some different colored ones. LOL. I know that they arent blastos though but maybe i can keep gettin em at that price if he dont know no better.LOL. And Tangmaster I have a JBJ Nano Cube 24 gallon as well. Check out my other thread. It has some sweeeet stuff in it as well. Hey rebelprettyboy that lfs i went to today had some of those blue japanese clove polyps also for 29.99. A pretty nice size rock too. Probably 3 inches by 2 inches :) and it was covered in em. I wanted em so bad But it had some majanos right in the middle of em. LOL.
