hey kuli loah I was at a tropical fish store today and I saw the weirdest thing ,I wish I asked what it was but didn,t now I'm kicking myself anyways it was like a ball and had loooong black stick like ..things and it had an eye in the center kinda neon like and then it could extend the eye alittle and there was these little blue dots that shone like lights ....it was the weirdest @#&!*%$ thing I ever saw!!!!!..with my fine description do you know what it may be ?


and people don't belive in aliens......when we have stuff like that swimming in our oceans

Possible an Urchin? I have no idea but, maybe if you could get a picture I can identify it.
hi-d
I don't but I'll look up what ya said and see ....thanx for your expertise!!!!
hi-d
this is the pic I found it!!!! sorry it's small but you'll know.
Kuli_Loach
Thats an Urchin and prob. what you saw. Don't touch it!!
hi-d
well trust me that was the weirdest thing i ever saw ...touching it was the furthest thing from my mind.... but I'll ask anyways .how come?
Kuli_Loach
They compare it to a bad wasp sting. The best way to stop it is to pea on it to and I am sure you have heard of them doing that.
hi-d
yeah I actually just watched heartbreak kid with ben steller and thats what happened with a jelly fish...lol
Kuli_Loach
Yea they do the same thing with an urchin sting. They are neat little animals to keep in an aquarium though, I actually have some of the dwarf varieties in my tank that came as hitchhickers with my LR.
hi-d
ha!! if I had a tank full of stinging lil things I'd be getting peed on everyday!!!!they look cool though .I love going to that fish store they have everything !!!

By chance is that a porcelain crab? We bought one last weekend for our marine tank. Pretty cool little crab, eats constantly!
Kuli_Loach
Thats an emerald. I don't have any decorator because they like to move stuff around. I have like 6 emerald crabs.

I thought porcelain crabs are filter feeders... isn't that why they have those fan-like gills?

I think PomPom crabs are the only filter feeders.

Kewl, they were out of emerald crabs so I got a porcelain crab but unfortunately he is MIA. unsure.gif Wondering if he is hiding out or the Red Eye Squirrel had a snack? Since they love crustaceans I am concerned. Nah, the crab would give him some serious pinches. Or not?
Kuli_Loach
He was prob. a snack unless you have lot's of hiding places for him. I don't get anything that eats crustaceans for that reason. rolleyes.gif
Smilingfish
badidea.gif I feel terrible for making such an obvious mistake.

We did a water change last night and rearranged rocks as we had 12 more pounds we wanted to add. No crab. sad.gif
Kuli_Loach
How big is ya'lls tank? How many pounds of LR? Where did you get your LR? Is it Cured or Uncured?

55 gallon with @ 80 pounds of live rock. Most purchased from a specialty fs, some from a friends tank that had feather dusters attached-sweet! yeah.gif
Cured? Not sure what you mean...
Kuli_Loach
I ordered mine straight from the ocean. Mine comes with a LOT of stuff on it. My rock never left the water until I put it in my tank. That is why I have a lot of that cactus looking algae and such.

Wow straight from the ocean. Very nice.
Ours were shipped inland to the store. We did have to soak them in manmade ocean water them since it stunk somthing terrible.
Kuli_Loach
Thats just s/w, I mix my own as well. It is cured then I am sure.
