Nice catch Scott. These crabs get BIG fast, eh?

The one in my sump is that size and he collects all the live hermits in my fuge and uses them as camo! Along with anything and every thing else in there...

Dentoid · 10-22-2007, 12:12 PM

I have thrown smaller ones in my fuge that I have removed. This one was too big and creepy to even go into my fuge. I have a Dusky jawfish in the fuge.

Congrats on catching that pesky crab!! I can't believe he dragged your clam over to use as a roof

Dentoid · 10-31-2007, 10:26 PM

Here are a couple of pictures I snapped recently.

Nice pics man.

Your longnose hawkfish looks fat and happy.
I love mine. He's loaded with character and ain't scared of nuthin.

Are those zoanthids or palythoas? There great looking. (the speckled ones)

I don't know what they are! They grew out of a piece of rock I bought with mushrooms on it. They have spread like wildfire. They're pretty and glow pink under the moonlight.

Thanks JFK!

Nice pics

GeeWizzItsMe · 10-31-2007, 11:06 PM

Great! The macro of the zoanthids is amazing! I want a frag!

framerguy · 10-31-2007, 11:08 PM

I thought you said you couldn't make your camera do that!! Looks like you figured it out, (^:~ Excellent, love the hawkfish. How's he getting along with the shrimps? I had one that ate every shrimp I tried.

Dentoid · 10-31-2007, 11:12 PM

Thanks ASH and Christopher!

I'll try fragging that zoa/paly.

Greg, you see how fat that Longnose is? He is well fed. However, I started with 4 peppermints and now have none. Don't know what happened to them. I have a skunk cleaner and 2 fire shrimps that are doing well. for all I know the fire shrimps killed the peppermints.

vdituri · 10-31-2007, 11:13 PM

Do they have problems with shrimp?
I have one with 2 skunk cleaners and no problems yet.
I'm not sure he even knows they are there.

framerguy · 10-31-2007, 11:18 PM

I purchased a mated pair of golden banded cleaners and the first one made it about 6 seconds before he got eaten. The only thing that saved the second one for two days is that's how long it took for the hawkfish to swallow the first one. He swam around for a day and a half with whiskers sticking out of his mouth. That's what he got for trying to eat it tail first, LOL. He ate the second one more quickly.... so, yeah, they eat shrimp!

vdituri · 10-31-2007, 11:20 PM

Hmmmm. What to do next?
Maybe mines a vegetarian? lol
