    Just found this "thing" in my tank. It's some kind of warm or larve. It looks like something moving inside of it. Yuk!
    I have not added any Live Rock in a month or so.

    Cucumber? Is that good or bad. I took it out of the tank and threw it in the yard. I found it laying in the sand. When I reached for it, something dashed under the rock. Not sure if it was a crab or part of this "thing." It had to be on one of my live rocks when I purchased it. It's one ugly mother.

    If there is one creature that strikes fear into most hobbyist, its this one. Of course I feel very differently and am a strong advocate of thier usefullness in our tanks. Yes, there are risks involved, but I feel those risks are given far to much publicity.-chuck
