given the quality of the pics, about the only thing I can say is hairy legs=gorilla crab=not reef safe. if it has beady red eyes and sharp pointed claws, get it out if you can. some people make crab kebab out of em, others use a small glass @ a 45* angle with some food at the bottom for bait

well it's eating like it was in the store now, pulling its tentacles into its mouth. it likes to be all the way up at the water level tho. as long as its eating i guess I don't mind lol

still doin fine as far as I could tell. I've read that they eat phyto/zooplankton, I've been putting cyclopeeze and DTs so it flows right into it. should I be feeding it something else instead?

Pretty awesome little creature. I also got a few sexy shrimps that are dancin around like little hoochies

works for me....just a sec how bout now?

it's probably a LPS, it's not a softie cuz the polyp kinda pulls back into the hard trumpet shaped part of it. it has tiny little fingerlike projections that stick up when the polyp is extended

no its not a mushroom it almost looks like a trumpet or candy cane, yet a little different. it has very small little fingerlike projections coming off of it when it's open, and looks like ridges coming from the center. I think it's a LPS because when it's receded it's still hard. def. not a...

and what kind of coral is this?

the thing on the sand below it is just a lil piece of anthelia

I dont think fish would appreciate you using a dremel on their home while they're in it

Just saw this is on Animal Planet. Description is "Beauty and mysteries of coral reefs." :loveface sweet! anyone see this before? it's from '02...

so on the rock I'd bought from the LFS the other day, I found a gorilla crab. he disappeared into a hole in said rock and I've yet to see him again just today I found what may be an aiptasia anemone. I'm not completely sure yet. there's only one I've found, and what's weird is it's on a rock...

maybe not feed anything? unless you have some non-photosynthetic corals they really don't need anything but light...and even then you can turn off the lights for a day or 2 and probably not worry about anything. that's what I ended up doing for mine. then again I wasn't putting anything in the...

so I took quite a bit of LR out of my tank because it was infested with calupera. I have it just sitting on my porch now. What would be the best way to get all of the calupera off the rock, so that the rock can be used again? obviously there's plucking it all off but that's damn near impossible...

jesus man are you 19 or 9? that's some horrendous spelling..... anyways, you get coralline ALGAE when you have consistently good water parameters and some live rock with some coralline on it. it won't just appear out of nowhere. your best bet, if your tank is stable, is to just get some...

cool, that's what I figured they were...sucks though, because my tank was infested with caulerpa that came from one little damn rock I got from a LFS awhile back. it had covered nearly every rock in my tank. I just spent the past couple hours taking out everything that had the caulerpa on it...
