could be a type of filamentous algae growing between the coraline and on top of the film algae. Doesn't really look like hydroids from what I can tell. What surface is it on? It looks flat. Is it glass? If so, you could just scrape it all off and suck it up. An urchin would probably clean...

Thanks! Please close, GSP frags gone now.

I think it is a spaghetti worm. I've had red variants before, although most of my spaghetti worms are white. They are one of the best in my opinion.

$24, which I thought was quite high considering ReefCleaners sells them for $16 when (rarely) in stock. Suppose save on shipping. There were three tanks with sea hares in them. Two of the tanks had small gobies (and one of the largest aiptasia I've seen), and the third only inverts. I took one...

Bit late! Tried calling Amazing Aquariums, but they just had trochus snails, not the heavy lawnmowers. I ended up at Tongs and brought home a sea hare. Bizarre creature. I saw it munching on GHA a bit, but it is currently sitting on top of my codium.

May I join the queue?

Please close, emerald crab dropped off at LFS.

Bought a hard working emerald. It did clean a lot of bubble algae. But, it also munches on corals indescriminantly. Saw it munch on some palys, RFA tentacles, round my crocea with AM with a bit of mantle damage, and just observed it grab and start to munch on a torch polyp. No thank you. If...

Yes, the one up 55 is Amazing Aquariums, and I see they only open at 2pm. I'll give them a call to see what they have. Going by Google reviews is a bit terrifying. Lots of 5 stars, and then, for some shops, lots of 1 stars with people commenting on their fishing coming home with ich and...

Aren't gonis better in the 80-150 range? Edit: I don't have gonis, only an alveopora, but it opens very big at lower PAR. Still thinking about getting a par meter, but I've got mine estimated at 80-100 on the bottom where the alve is.

Hi all, I'm needing to make a quick trip to an LFS from Irvine. Any feedback you can give on nearby LFS to pick up a tux urchin OR sea hare OR possibly turbo snails (latter probably not preferable, as I want a real GHA lawnmower). Also wouldn't mind finding a lettuce nudibranch. I am a bit...

Nobody wants free GSP?

I'm in Irvine, a bit further away, but I've been worrying about my crocea getting enough PAR beneath an AI Prime 16HD. I'd be interested in talking about a solution, too, since I really just want a quick reading, adjustments, reading and done. Thanks!

I'm going to start cutting this GSP mound tonight that has overgrown the rock and is spreading across the sand. Should be an easy cut and expecting two chunks. They will be free and unattached to anything. GSP was originally purchased from Reef Raft USA. Pickup Irvine near Spectrum...

Mushroom out. Xenia pending pickup tomorrow. FYI, responders #2+, this stuff grows pretty fast, so I'll have more later and will contact you individually when I have more growing on other shells!

He's back in my AIO return pump chamber @isaacalves I didn't have the heart to throw it out after it's survived and grown bigger in that return chamber for almost 9 months! Back in it went. As long as it doesn't look like it can crawl out, I'm OK with it. I have a taker though if I ever...

Pending both

Pulsing Xenia covering a large shell. Single blue spot discosoma IF I can get it--it keeps floating under the cave where my tongs can't reach, but I'll try to blow it out. See attached. Pickup must be in Irvine Spectrum area on Friday. Thanks!

Does anyone in the Irvine-ish area have turbos that have already done their job and need a new tank as a home? I had 2 smooth turbos in my EVO 13.5g that died simultaneously--may have been bothered too much by a hermit that's been recently removed--and now I only have a pencil urchin for the...
