      |  New Discovery!!! Never ceases to amaze me at what new critters show up in tank periodically even after tank up several years. Up early and just as lights turning on I noticed a blackish "blob" on sand in front of tank... Running for camera, I got these pics...    Would guess about 4" long. Quickly disappeared into rocks once light turned on... May explain complete disappearance of hydroid plague I have been "blessed" with for ages...  (still think there is a pistol shrimp in there that I have never seen, but often heard) Last edited by omard; 04-27-2008 at 03:21 PM. |

Guess we will find out... But my hydroid farms have been completely wiped out over last couple of months... Before, (had several nice crops looking like this...)  Now...  Not a hydroid to be seen anywhere... Both kinds gone, brown fuzzies and little stick kind (which used to be all over tank) have all but disappeared.... Nothing I bought. Gift from the great Reef God. If nudi has any other bad habits, expect I will learn to live with them. But none noticed so far. Last edited by omard; 04-26-2008 at 10:40 AM. | |

If it likes star polyps, I have them. And will get it more if it wants them as long as it keeps the hydroids under control. | |
