d2mini's "Essential Focus" Mixed Reef Build

[d2mini]

Very nice Dennis!!!

Thanks!

 

[d2mini]

Found this on my sand bed this morning.
What the heck is it????

 

[d2mini]

Ends up it was a big chiton. A dead one.

Ok, who's the wiseguy who took a chiton on my sand bed! :lol:

EDIT: Correction.... I'm seeing Limpet but calling it a Chiton for some reason. It was a Limpet.

But that's not funny! lol

Now you need to go watch a old movie:

The Incredible Mr. Limpet

Isn’t there a large flat worm in the planira(spelling?) species?



Edit;
A polyclad flatworm

If you turned mine over, it had a shell like this.
Limpet. Pretty common.

That’s pretty cool. I’ve necer seen them before. My limpits have always had cone shaped shells.

Yeah, conical shape with a hole on top (keyhole limpet).

Your tank keeps looking nicer and nicer! When you ordered the package from TBS, did you get all the hermit crabs and snails that they normally include? Thanks.

Dennis, do you have any issues with finding gorilla crabs and pistol shrimp? I poured seltzer water over holes from my latest build and still had a few (and two that are quite large). Just curious if you had dealt with eliminating the crabs, I can live with the snapping. Beautiful tank as well!

Thank you. Yes, I did.

I had some baby gorillas which I'd pull out occasionally, but haven't seen any in quite some time. I haven't found a single mantis in my last two orders. Very strange.

Now that you mention it, I didn't find a single one in my last batch either. I'm not complaining since combing through ~500lbs of live rock doesn't sound fun to me.
