Acros turning white from base up

[ostrow]

Oh now I see what you mean. I've asked about the crabs separate. Have found nobody selling that. I don't even know how long the crabs can survive w/out an acro.

I've only ever seen them with colonies for sale.

They say they can not survive without the colony they are with from what I have read in the past. They also say not to remove them from the host colony as they will surely die. I am sure some have had success with removing them and keeping them alive though. This whole hobby is trial and error you know. What works for you will sometimes not work for others.

That's them and now I see the eggs. I wonder if I frag the good parts now, and inspect them with a fine tooth comb if that will help at all. I wonder if these guys have migrated to others and just not showing signs yet? I do see what I guess are eggs now that I have seen them. This really blows.

Start a new thread here with the problem in the subject. I'm sure some of the big hitters here have wiped them out. Mike, Menard, Rod, one of the Jims or Jeffs. Someone will know.
