    Bubble Aglae

    I also ended up getting some bubble algae. Its one the back of a 40 lb rock, I can not get to it by hand or move the rock. With out a half tear down. I was thinking about an emerald. Does he pose a threat to any thing else? Sorry to interrupt this thread.

    How to catch a Mantis Shrimp

    Alive was my first intent. Things don't always work out how we plan though. It was luck that on that day he chose the smallest rock in the tank, the one he was normally in was 40lb. I felt bad for him, but I would have felt worse about giving him a 72gal live buffet. You just have to be...

    How to catch a Mantis Shrimp

    I watched mine for two weeks. Then I threw his rock in a container of soda water. After he killed two fish. Every thing I read said that he would come flying out of his hole, but mine did not. I waited and waited, then waited, ended up pretty much killing the rock. His body remained in...

    Oh, how fast they grow up.

    seaham358 yes it does look like the one in you gallery. And I have been looking at pictures of both all day, thank you for pointing out my mistake. The "no way" comment was because I was so sure, I knew what every thing in my tank was. I am trying so hard to make sure that I do every thing...

    Oh, how fast they grow up.

    Oh, no way. That is what the lfs sold it to me as, and all the care I given is for a colt. LOL I am glad I did not kill it if it is a sinularia. It is basically a cream color. The base has been like that for it's entire life with me. Which I stated has only been a couple months. I guess I...

    Oh, how fast they grow up.

    Red fuzzy pipe cleaner

    Macro makes since. I posted a new picture in the first post. The texture reminds me of pipe cleaner. The snails don't bother it, I have caught a crab or two on top of it, either picking at it or just on it. Oh yes I forgot, these pictures are taken I guess from the botton back. If I could...

    Red fuzzy pipe cleaner

    This came on a rock, I bought about two months ago. It was in my nano. Did not see it until after I had it in the tank. About three weeks ago I moved it to my new main tank. It has better lights. Anyways now in the main tank, the cyno is gone. It is fuller, and now I have seven new ones...
