I was actually going to get some from there, I think 5 kilos would be a bit too much for me. But your rock does look good, and I love the openness you've given it too.

Love the aquascaping. Hard to tell from the pic but the green stuff looks like coraline to me. Can't help with the worm though.

Wow very nice. Almost looks like a mountain with a valley down in the middle, or a little lagoon.

A hitchhiker probably died and started a mini cycle during your cycle

Does it look like this? Hard to tell from the pic. If so, it is a snail and nothing to worry about.

Here is what ccCapt posted when I put the pic up originally.

The other does look like a vermetid snail. The web they shoot can annoy some corals.

It is really amazing how life just pops up in what you thought was void of all life isn't it. That was one of the coolest things in my opinion. Kind of makes you beleive that Momma Nature knows what she is doing huh?
