My HUGE pet sea hare

[boggerscott]

My brother picked this thing up for me and was like "here enjoy" ???? im like what in GODS name am i going to do with this thing. I take him over to my buddies tank and within a day and a half his hair alge was all cleaned up. so i brought him back home well needless to say I have no hair alge so im thinking to myself "man what could I feed him??" so I told the wife when she went to the store pic me up some sushi wraps and ROMANE LETTUCE.

This thing loves romane lettuce. check out the pics . so hopefully the storries I always here about them just starving to death in peoples tanks cause there is nothing to eat , can end

just thought i would share with u all.

I dont know whats more impressive, that creature or the incredibly crisp photography.

 

[CaliReefer12]

[Bluespot22]

Wow! You should rent it out to people with HA problems.

 

[boggerscott]

ID BE GLAD TO HELP ANYONE OUT

 

[YE||0W TA|\|G]

Geeze thats massive!

 

[airdog67]

Can you show that on RC, I thought this was a family orientated web sight :lol:

 

[Pufferpunk]

Looks like a giant snot or even better--a goant BOGGER! Bet it poops a lot.

 

[dalston]

You could start your own landscaping buisness with that bad boy

 

[poopsko24]

looks kinda like you bogger.....J/K. Too bad its not a freshwater one that I can put in my pond. Keep up the feedings little buddy. Whats his name ? I know you have one for it.

 

[Mister Scopas]

Where's the POP, Rudy?!?!

 

[MarineGirl411]

Awwww. He's cute! Where did your brother get him?

 

[brandyrb]

cool, but eww. I don't think I could handle holding a large sea hare in my bare hands.

 

[JustinReef]

Wow...hes huge!

You should probably feed him Nori instead of lettuce though. Lettuce has no nutritional value for fish, so I assume its the same for inverts.

 

[LukFox]

I agree about the nori^^^.

But WOW. That is one amazing sea hare!

 

[silverfly]

Wow! how big are his poos though?:lol:

 

[otrlynn]

Impressive size on the sea hare and very impressive photography? What camera/lens are you using?

 

[THE ROOK]

This is a good thread as I picked up a 4" sea hare last week & he's already wiped out my H.A. problem. I'm going to get some Nori & see if it'll eat it.

My LFS also mentioned feeding algea pellets but I'm sure they're probably loaded with phosphates.
