05XRunner Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Well I got my emerald on Wed...He took off into the rocks after sitting on the sand for a few mins...Havnt seen it since. I have about 70lb of rocks in there. I figure probably wont ever see it come out of the rock work again. Link to comment

glennr1978 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I see mine way to much!! I just put in a new zoo rock with about 300+ polyps on it and he's already picking at it. Link to comment
05XRunner Posted February 12, 2007 Author Share Posted February 12, 2007 I wish i could see him again..but I am not tearing anything apart to find it..I am sure one day when not expecting it will show up really big or something..LOL Link to comment
mascencerro Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I mostly only see mine at night when i check things out or before I go to work with the flashlight. When I first got him, he was always battling with my damsel over what they thought was prime real estate, but they now get along in the same hole. The damsel resides there at night, and he is in there during the day. Link to comment

Spliffstar Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 i think u'll see him again... 70lbs is alot, but these guys have great personalities and never seem bashfull.. they ar fantastic cleaners too.. rocks, sand, hermit crabs... they'll clean anyting... a bit dangerous imo though if u have small fish.. quick story: had a occ clown brand new from the pet store... as soon as i put him in the crab started freaking out like it was dinner time... the occ clown was swimming low and the crab would actually hang off the rock swiping at him, then let go and try to fall on the fish..(freaking awesome to watch). well the clown must have been stressed or something because 2 mornings later, he was crab food.. sorry to scare you.. I dont think thats very common.. Link to comment
05XRunner Posted February 12, 2007 Author Share Posted February 12, 2007 I am not to worried about that..the Emerald wasnt very big and my clwon pair is much larger then him....I just hope I see the darn thing again one day. I guess its easier to spot them in like 12g tanks then it is a 75gal with alot more rock. Link to comment
