[54seaweed]

here's the bigger one going to hide in his hole , he was about 5 inch in this pict the hole is about the size of a quarter
but now he is almost 6 inch and he still gets in and out of it
took me a week to find his hiding place the lil sneak
I circled the hole red that he hides in

Im hopeful becuse of your story, but i just came downstairs this morning and he is nowhere to be seen :/ well... I guess i wont be getting inverts for a while. Believe it or not that crab was one of my favorite things in the whole tank.

 

[54seaweed]

hope he shows up

but if not

remember if your good Santa could always bring you another

I'll go a couple of weeks between sightings of some of my inverts. Try not to worry to much

That's why you get the kids to name them, that was my technique.

Tank is lookin ok. Crab is gone, kinda sucks. Flame wrasse is always in the front, great fish.

Still debating the sump project, but we have 300 bucks burnin a hole in our pockets so we will have to buy something soon.

It must be doing its job then!

I agree..but it was literally mud! I had to use a wire brush to get it off. Should i be going for more of a wet skim?

God it was smelly..and those wire brushes have a tendancy to fling the stuff back at you...lol ew

I just man up and wipe it out under running water with my hand lol. You can always wash up afterwards haha.

Right on! That's how I ldo it. The wire brushes can slightly scratch the reaction chamber over time and make it harder for the skimate to move up into the cup and cause the nasty gunk to build up even faster.
