They look like pineapple sponges to me. Harmless filter feeders.

Hey all, just wondering if anyone knows what type of pistol shrimp I've found.

Goniopora, maybe.

Sure can, but you're a bit late. I took it into one if my lfs.

You could try aiming two powerheads at one another to make some flow random and it might sweep across the bottom if you get it right.

Google aiptasia.

Looks like coralline algae to me.

You could do that ( I've had to before. ) or you could try to get them on one side of the tank ad separate it with say egg crate move it more to one side until the fish don't have a lot of room and then net them out. Hope that helps.

Thanks, I'm not sure how I'd go about shipping it interstate. Sorry.

It looks like a sebae to me, clownfish are hit and miss when it comes to hosting Nems even if they do with that species in the wild. It could take a day, it could take a week or it might not ever happen. I got lucky when I released mine into my tank as they both went straight for my hammer coral.

Hey all, I'm not sure how many people here are from Australia but I have a mantis shrimp that's about 7cm, not sure what type but he's been a hitch hiker I've had for a while but have had to get rid of. Just wondering if anyone wanted him before I give him to a lfs.

Bumppppp?

Yeah it's gunna be a 55, with skimmer section and refug.

Hey all, Soon I will have to set up an overflow in my 180 I was looking at glass-holes.com but could anyone give me some idea of what size/gph ect that would be best? Also what sort of return pump would I need, it's a 6x2x2 which is going I be a mixed reef. Or any tips in general about making...

Nope, never had a problem. I'm not saying it wont happen but I've never had any issues like that.

I'm in Australia also and have used livefish.com.au and have had good results. They also have a DOA thing that if anything is dead you take a photo and send it in to them and whatever an they give you your choice of store credit or a refund.

Yes, it's possible.

I'm not sure where you live but in Australia there'sno way I'd pay that. Possibly $50-$70.

I've heard the same. I checked out the link an for that price im pretty sure you could get some better ones that can sustain anemones or sps coral if that's what you decide you'd like to do. Taotronics seems to be a popular brand people use in this forum. But that depends on what you want to keep.

Looks like a sponge to me. Harmless.

As far as I know, skimmers always help and you should be using one in a nano instead of another type of filter. But I could be wrong. Strip tests are also not very accurate. The liquid tests are much more accurate. Also your tests could be reading 0 because the algae is eating any nutrients...

Ha, I wish I had the time and patience for all that. Yeah it's insane. That's the reason I've not bought another since my first one died. Also for whoever asked occys go for anywhere between $15-$50 dollars depending on how much they have in, demand ect.

I envy you, cleaner shrimp sell for $140 at my lfs in Australia.

Maybe you should make sure it's eating before you buy it. I have one and its the fattest fish in my tank. Eats algaes, brine and such.
