Pink Cucumber

[djcanis]

Ok, so I have one in my tank now. The GF decided to get me some stuff for my tank. I did a bunch of reading up on them and am a little disturbed about this toxic secretion they may let off if spooked or die... Anyone have any suggestions? What to do, not to do? Care, etc... Its cool looking, hence why she bought it, but I'm a little scared...

i would set up a species only tank for it. then you get the cool-looking without the risk of the everything dying.

What are the warning signs of something going wrong with cuc's? I am less scared the more reading I do, but I have read about making sure they dont starve... How do I tell if its malnurished? Besides seeing it on a Sally Struthers infomercial asking for 25 cents a day... No seriously, what are the tell tale signs of something wrong with these guys?
