Thanks for the help!

When extended they are translucent, but when compacted, they have a green tint. The shape looks very similar to the club-tipped/strawberry anemones (Corynactis sp.). -Tom

I found some info: http://www.advancedaquarist.com/issues/oct2002/invert.htm scroll down to Pseudocorynactis The description matches: small, powerfull nematocysts, bright orange tips, opens at night. Thanks, -Tom

Here's a pic after all lights were off (flash again) The angle isn't very good, and the colors are washed out, but you can get an idea of how much bigger it gets.

It looks a lot like the pseudocoryactinis shroom. There are no google hits on pseudocoryactinis, any links? Here is a pic just before the actinic turned off (with flash) You can see the mouth in the center

I've notice a few of these in my tank. I believe it's an anemone since the arms are sticky. The tenticles are green with orange bulbs at the end. The base is red, and I can see a mouth in the center. It extends at night and retracts during the day. This one was hiding under the rock until I...

I know it doesn't have the hook, but I use large tupperware containers for this. It works great. -Tom

Ok, update #2 The cucumber started moving after lights out. It moved against the back wall. I disassembled the overflow again, and tried to get it out. I was trying to use a peice of tubing to scoop it out, but it wedged itself in. I actually gave up on it, and figured that if it...

First off let me say AAAAGGGGGHHHH!!!! :guns: :guns: :waa: :verymad: The way my overflow is setup, I have the return and standpipe shoved into a 4" x 5" area. The tank is 20" tall. I pulled the standpipe, but the cucumber was behind the return tube. I can't reach the bottom of the...

I haven't done it yet. I'll going to try tonight. :eek: -Tom

I could, but I would have to dissasemble the durso overflow which is kind of jammed in there. :( I'm also worried about moving it. I'm not sure what kind of tolerance these things have before evicerating themselves. That might be my only choice through. -Tom

On Monday night I noticed one of my Tiger Cucumbers was stuck in my corner overflow. It looks like it scaled the tank wall and was swept into the overflow (I even have egg create covering the openings). I saw it trying to get back out, but due to the water hight difference couldn't make it...

By "Control 20 devices", JKS1 means it uses X10 to turn on/off things like lights, pumps, fans, CO2 solenoids, UV, etc. I haven't seen anything that can electonicly measure nitrates, etc. Check aquaticeco.com they are a huge aquiculture supply house. If it exists they would have it. -Tom

I feel like I binked and missed the trend. I could have sworn that a month ago, everyone was DSB. What caused the sudden reversal? :confused: -Tom

One of my favorite things: Pyrex (glass) measuring cups I use it for: measuring salt thawing food soaking food in vitamins Filtering baby brine acclimation etc I also use a lot of tupperware -Tom

My Yellow eats anything and everything. (Formula 1 frozen/flake, poop, prime reef frozen/flake, poop, brine shrimp, poop, blood worms, poop, dried nori, etc) Mine, while swiming around, poops, turns around, sees his own poop, which surprises him, causing him to run over and taste it...

I'll give mine in two answers :D 1) The Techincal Answer EE/Sr. ASIC Designer: Designing Carrier quality/High Density Ethernet Switches. (not Cisco) :confused: 2) The Non-Technical Answer I design the little black bugs with the thousands of legs that you see inside your computer...

Great info! I'll give it a try :bouncer: Thanks, -Tom

HEH, my "brain" does it all the time. :D I picked up a nice jar of freeze dried mysis from brine shrimp direct. -Tom

I do the same for frozen food (even flake), but freeze dried stuff is like rice crispies. No matter how long it soaks, it still floats :D -Tom:
