    Mantis shrimp?

    here's one in south florida. Anyone flying to Miami Beach? hehe I'm sure TSA would love to know what you have in the clear gallon zip lock bag. I guess that wouldn't work. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1145143

    My 90 tale

    the sand-sifting starfish is named as such because it is sifting sand for things to eat. Does your sand have anything in there (e.g. worms or pods yet?). If not - it might be useful to provide some morsels down there. Some might even argue that the star-fish actually eats the very things that...

    Interesting Situation for me today....

    Actually - a friend of mine in NC had a problem with the lights/fans in the canopy and it caught fire. Needless to say not much survived...but thankfully he and his wife were not hurt. So a flood doesn't sound that bad when I think about the electrical risk.

    Tires in the ocean make a great reef...

    Nice artificial reef! (not!) Tim Keeney, U.S. deputy assistant secretary for oceans and atmosphere and a key high-level figure within the National Oceanic and Atmopsheric Administration, checks out one of the approximately two million old tires that were dumped in the 1970s with the intent of...

    Hydroids

    with the right water parameters, it's highly unlikely that the limpets could do much damage to the c.algae. I'm pretty sure I have keyhole limpets...I had extracted most of them from my gulf-of-mexico rock but one large one eluded my capture and I believe (unfortunately) it was pregnant. I now...

    WATER CIRCULATION

    Just another vote here that closed loops/powerheads should be used to help with the overall flow...relying solely on the sump return to do that is just going to be real noisy. =) An article from anthony calfo on the topic: http://www.wetwebmedia.com/circmarart.htm

    what is this? a worm?

    for what it's worth - and i'm not an invertebrate zoologist - worms are far more likely to be beneficial for the tank - with some notable exceptions (coral eating fireworm, and the plain ugly eunice species worms). Granted when tiny eunice are harmless scavengers -it's the foot long plus ones...

    A lawyer's guide to fatherhood...USATODAY

    By Jonathan TurleyWed Jun 13, 7:11 AM ET Fatherhood is the one job that you can get without the slightest degree of experience, knowledge or talent (despite what you may hear to the contrary on Father's Day).

    Mantis shrimp?

    N. wennerae is quite common in gulf of mexico live rock. I had caught 4 of them (2 reddish, 2 greenish) and gave them to the Brooklyn Aquarium Society back when I lived in NY. They are pretty small and are the hammer type mantis. I suggest posting a request on the TBS forum in RC. (That's...

    Pink bubble tip anemone

    I would keep feeding it. I'm surprised that your maroons aren't viciously defending the anemone when you attempt to feed it...mine did. Then she'd promptly take the food from the tongs and bring it straight to the anemone.
