After all these years I was finally able to get ahold of a 3" juvenile Sarcastic Fringehead!

I completely re did my Micro Reefs 7.2 temperate AIO to mimic the environment seen the the BBC Life segment about the Sarcastic Fringehead. Theres a dozen or so CA brittle stars, a couple algae covered rocks, and I even got the same species of snail shell for his home as seen in the video :)

For those of you who haven't seen the above mentioned video take a second and watch this:



I'll get my vids and pics posted soon (would love to upload direct from my mobile but it doesn't seem to let me)

Until then, enjoy the video :)

 

**Edited to add pics which I should have had in the initial post, please excuse my laziness :)

He's eating PE mysis and LRS Fish Frenzy :)

 

I may go collect a bucket full of Sitka shrimp next time I'm out and see how he goes after them.

I collect and sell temperate marine animals, so I'm in contact with a lot of other collectors as well. This little guy came from a marine species collector in California. I've got 3 species of fringeheads from them so far: Yellowfin Fringehead, Onespot Fringehead, and the Sarcastic Fringehead. When we have them available you can get them at www.Coldwatermarineaquatics.com :)

The Sarcastic Fringehead got evicted by a brittle star who is now squatting in his old home, luckily construction on his duplex was finished quickly.
