Re:Eggs?

You're trying to put the link to the page into an image tag, instead of the link to the image...

So it should be something like this:

Here's the proof. This is like the third batch in as many weeks. I must have just missed them being laid.

The eggs are gone from the glass as of yesterday. Nothing has turned up from this batch or the previous two. I'll post if I see anything.

:( well, I'm down to one lettuce. Came home yesterday to pieces of one floating around the tank. I guess it got into one of the Maxi Jets. I have the intake covers on them but the slugs still manage to get sucked through the itty bitty slots in the covers. That's two down that way. :'( bummer.

I added 3 to my tank and they were all gone within a week, gotta love them PH, lost my 5 year old anemone to one as well and the crab that it was hosting. I have even tried to build up rocks along with the screens and it still didn't help, sorry for your loss, they are cool critters.

The last one seems to stick mostly to the rocks so hopefully he keeps to them and away from the PH's. The one that was chopped up was the one laying all the eggs. Maybe they weren't sterile and little ones will start showing up. The serpent star didn't seem to mind the mishap though. Got right to cleaning up the mess.

I'm sorry to hear that Rich. I wonder what percentage of nudibranch/sea slug deaths can be attributed to powerhead mishaps. I would say close to 90%.

The first one that went in to the PH I saw happen. I was actually reaching to remove it from the cover when it got sucked through. In hind site, I wish I would have hit the feed cycle button first. Would have prevented the slice and dice. I was considering putting fiberglass screen over the covers but figured that would cause the PH to clog more quickly so I opted not to, considering flow.
