Really? It ate chaeto? I've never seen mine eat chaeto. I know it likes caulerpa and ha and others, but chaeto? That's a new one.

can one (lawnmower blenny) be kept in a tank with a midas blenny? Tank is a 70g Oceanic RR

1. I've had several sea hares that ate nori sheets well.
2. When I first started I had a sea hare ink in a 29g tank and nothing happened--corals and fish were fine.

So...I guess it's different for everyone.

I am adding one to my 210 in a few days. This is one that is being loaned from a local club member. He will probably make his rounds thourgh a few tanks so we can keep him feed and happy.

I too have heard they can release toxins and wipe out a tank. I have one and about 2 weeks ago found it on the bottom of the tanks covered in the purple ink along with my green carpet anemone. Apparently it fell right into the anemone which I think tried to eat it. It escaped but left the anemone covered in the purple ink. Luckily nothing died in the tank and all involved were not harmed. Mine also will disappear for long periods then reappears. My HA is just about gone as well.

mine poops alot, and its big! Whats supposed to eat its poop?

 

[Dante_JoseCuerv]

I'd guess that the bacteria and microfauna would take care of the poop.

The nice thing about their err...umm poop is it's large and easy to siphon out. I've thought about tiger cukes assimilating the waste, but I have no sand bed. Though I read a TOTM who had cukes without sand. But in the end, poop would become poop would it not? Is there some kind of poop infinity I don't know about? :lol:
