Thanks guys!
Druluv, let me know how it goes, I'm very interested

OK well, I'll try and get some pics later of a new addition

But other breaking news, I walked downstairs this morning to let the dog out, I went over to look at the tank and towards the bottom middle one of the rocks looked white and fuzzy, a seconfd later it started to move!! It was a bristle worm probably about 10-12" long and about 1.5" wide. The thing didn't look like a bristle worm at all because of how thick it was, it was definitely thicker than my thumb around.
Let me tell you that I have never in my life been afrain to touch anything on my aquarium, including my foxface, until today. It looked crazy, I tried to grab it with 2 net handles but it was too strong and I couldn't get it. It was able to escape into the rocks even with me throwing acros around trying to snag it. I guess the hunt it on tonight!

Well it's a good night so far, I picked up my trap from a friend last night and filled it with some goodies, an echino, a mycedium, and a frag of a purple acro he's been especially destructive one. I went down to put some clothes in the dryer and noticed some movement in the trap, hit the string, did a happy dance, and ripped him out into his temporary home.

I thought you were hunting a bristle worm....??

I thought I had updated on this site but looking back I may have missed it, a little ways back my Golden Pygmy Angel found a new taste called SPS polyps and ever since then has made all of them stay closed. He was probably the most elusive fish I ever had to catch.

Glad u were able to catch him. Now you can concentrate on the real monster lurking in those rocks. Good luck!
