I have had zoo's before with great success. Just recently, I purchased some blue tubs from the local fish store. When I acclimated them everything went well. All of my lighting, water perimeters, and current are all in check. But....I do have a problem. It seems when the lights go out all of the little arthropods will gather over the blue tubs and in the morning, a couple of heads will be missing. So far I have lost 10 heads! I then took out the blue tubs from the tank, and put them in a small tank by themselves with no problems. No heads missing. They are opening up fine. I have been told that the arthropods in my reef tank are only scavengers and not predators. What gives? Am I the only person that this has happened to? Upon putting them back in my main reef tank, when night fell, the arthropods came out like a pack of zombies and went for kill. (Completely covering the blue tubs) So I took the tubs out once again. Please someone help.
