Sea Apple?

[seanothon]

Anybody have any experience with these. I have always wanted one, just didn't know too much about them. I know it is possible that they can wipe out a tank, but the said the same thing about my cowfish

Because of tank wipe out, I never got one. They say the same thing about cucumbers. How brave are you and what is in the tank with it, if you have something that will pick at it you may have a problem. Hands in the tank moving stuff is another stressor.

a cowfish (and many other puffers and boxfish) will release toxins when they die, or get stressed, they prabably wont if theres no reason to, the toxins will wipe out the tank. I wouldnt trust a sea apple, or any other cucumber, because A: They can wipe out the tank, and B: IMO, cucumbers, and stuff like that, just kind of gross me out. Dont know why, they just do.

The hardest part in Sea Apple care would be feeding it. Squirting cyclopeeze or marine snow twice a day isn't going to cut it. You'll have to do something like SantaMonica's Automatic Continuous Feeder.

I am really asking this more hypothetically, i think i have already talked myself out of getting one. I was just wondering more than anything
