Figured I'd get a thread going to see some favorite inverts from the community members here at AA! I love some of my inverts just as much as my fish. I'll start it off with some of my favorite inverts in my tank.


Red Linkia (hands down my favorite invert in my tank)-


Flame Scallop-


Scarlet Reef Hermit Crabs-

Nice looking inverts! I love the brittle stars but mine turned out to be an excellent fish catcher so he was banished to the sump. Hes everybit of 6" in diameter if not bigger.

Tiny 'abalone-type' snail i got from my old LFS owner. They are an excellent cleaner for their size and id definatly get more if i knew what they were. Not limpets either. Always make it to my sump so i toss em back into the DT.

"Duality" - porcelain crab en reef.

Sorry for the far out shot, if I zoomed the resolution would be much lower. This guy actually lost a claw while the LFS was trying to get him, but it's regrown since he last molted.
