2 Identifications please.

I have two ID's to be made.

1. Bright light green growth on rock. Not certain what it is. Just concerned it may be some algae. Pic here: http://photobucket.com/albums/v247/M...t=IMG_2862.jpg

2. Snail with yellow stripes along its' length. Maybe 1/4 inch in length. I have heard of the Bumblebee snail is that this one? Good bad indifferent?

Bumbel Bee snails have a yellow stripe that spirals around the shell.

green looks like a light green coralline or encrusting sponge. Pic kinda fuzzy.

Thanks. Whew. Was worried for abit. That is the only thing not red in my tank currently. As for the snails. Bumblebee it is. I have at least 2 in there. I suppose they came with the LR. Thanks again.

Bumble Bees are pretty good. Pretty much stay on LR. I have had two in my tank for 18 mos or so. Pretty much pruple now though.

Well. I have one more ID to be made. Here is one of my hermit crabs. I have searched high and low for a pic similar in order to ID him. Can't seem to nail it down. I have 4 of them. They are fairly large for hermits. If you can't see it. They have a light greenish legs with Vertical stripes that run down their legs. Not horizontal like the Green Legged Hermit. 8O Thanks. Here's a link to a pic: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...y/IMG_2839.jpg

I have ID'd the Hermit crabs. They are apparently Clibanarius vittatus Hermit Crabs. I have 4 of them. I am under the impression they are reef safe. However, they are fairly large. Here is a link to a pic of one out of his shell. http://www.gsmfc.org/seamap/picture_...20vittatus.pdf
