| Do I look as lost as I am ![]() | Dwarf Sea Hare ???? Ok I'm sort of confused (what's new right?) Honestly every day is like my first day here. I dig up old threads, ask crazy questions and just seem to act like a power head that's lost it's suction in the tank causing ALL kinds of chaos. I am familiar with the "Sea Hare" (Sea Hare (Aplysia sp))that we've been talking about lately. But I have also found what's been called a Dwarf Sea Hare (Dolabrifera dolabrifera) but can't really find a whole lot about it. Does anyone have any information or better yet experience with it? Several local reefers here are talking about getting some and I'm just wondering why I can't find much information about the "Dwarf" one. If it's THAT good why aren't they more readily available?

| Do I look as lost as I am ![]() | Re: Dwarf Sea Hare ???? Once again don't OVER estimate Me! I just found the "Real" name and goggled it right after I posted here. Earlier I was just looking for Dwarf Sea Hare.... I think I'll tell them to order some for our small tanks. The large ones really run through a 12g tank quick but there's no WAY to support him long term.Thanks gang! I needed the guidance badly ![]()

| Do I look as lost as I am ![]() | Re: Dwarf Sea Hare ???? Just out of curiosity how LONG do you think a Dwarf Sea Hare can live "In-Transit"? I have 3 being shipped and apparently the transportation company has "mis-placed" them and they wont make the 24hr delivery window. The KICKER is no one is here after 4:30 today to accept them (it's now 3:52pm on Friday) so they will remain "In-Transit" until some time on Monday. It gets fairly cold here right now at night but maybe they'll be in a heated warehouse over the weekend. Do yall think they'll survive? Maybe I'll get lucky and the lady I spoke to with the carrier was mistaken and they will arrive shortly Allen

| Sunshine Reefer ![]() | Re: Dwarf Sea Hare ???? I hope they show up soon. I really don't know how long they can survive. Hopefully they can make it through the weekend. Since the carrier lost the package is there any way they will do a Saturday delivery to make up for it?

It left Miami Fl 5:38pm 12/6/2007 (headed to North Carolina over night) as of today the site shows Wilmington - Clinton Field, OH 6:40am 12/8/2007. That's 48hrs and it's still two STATES away. I guess they aren't making it ...
