kevin_f Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Would love to have sexy shrimp.. my wrasse would eat them in 2 seconds. Quote Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 My fave fantasy is that my pair will produce some who live to adulthood even with me doing nothing -- yes, I know it's a fantasy! I do enjoy having them in the tank! I am considering adding my koralia hydor nano back into the tank -- tucked behind rock at the bottom where I won't see it. Are there any problems with sexies and greater flow/turbulence? I had a gaggle of them in an 80g with three MP10s at 100%, they were fine and dandy. Quote Link to comment

Lalani Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 Somebody tell me this is a horrible idea: I was thinking about setting up my 8 gal biorb (completely round acrylic tank) with a mini and maxi nem island and anemone shrimp (sexies, pederson's, white spots). Bad bad bad idea, right? RIGHT? Quote Link to comment

Lalani Posted September 30, 2012 Author Share Posted September 30, 2012 Dagnabit! I guess I need to sell some of my extra tank equipment so I can buy a Par38 for the biorb. :/ Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 How is it possible that the 3 sexies I have in my DT are all female? The 5 sexies in the fuge are SO tiny, i can barely make out the patterns on the tail so as yet I am unable to sex them. Quote Link to comment

If they're young enough, they can still change their sex. But I've only ever seen them change from male to female. Maybe female is forever? I had three small males together when one of them found herself. Took about 3 weeks to fully change. Quote Link to comment
citori525 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 WOOHOO!!! I finally picked up three sexies today and I feel part of the sexy club! Quote Link to comment
Lalani Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 to the club! Quote Link to comment
citori525 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Just put them in my tank and they seem to love it so far. My clown showed interest but turned away which I'm thankful for. These guys weren't cheap getting them up here in Alaska Quote Link to comment
citori525 Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Here's two of the sexies already eating a pellet. They seem to love the tank Quote Link to comment
Hunter4255 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Would these be ok with Pom Pom crabs and two snowflake clowns or possibly a Midas blenny? Anyone ever kept them with jawfish? Quote Link to comment
tinctorus Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I see your mad cat and RAISE YOU 1 SAD CAT Just put them in my tank and they seem to love it so far. My clown showed interest but turned away which I'm thankful for. These guys weren't cheap getting them up here in Alaska How much did you get robbed for up there in no man's land?? I have to imagine it's insanely expensive to have a reef tank up there as I would imagine there are next to no reef shop's and you have to have everything ordered online right? Plus shipping and 10X the amount of normal heat packs probably kills you LOL Quote Link to comment

Plus shipping and 10X the amount of normal heat packs probably kills you LOL Each sexy was a terrible 25 a piece. Almost everything at the LFS is double the price compared to online shopping, but if you factor in shipping, what you buy at the LFS here would be about the same price as buying online. I've never ordered online, yet, mostly due to the fact that the LFS is very good and PETCO offers a good bargain on most equipment. Quote Link to comment
steelcube Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Yeah my sexies cost $25 a piece too. After reading this thread I'm going to hopefully pick up one more, but wait until my brother makes a large online order for his new tank and add my sexy to his order. It'll be awhile though. Here's a picture of my sexies. They've been perching on my plate every night. It doesn't seem to mind, not that it could do anything I guess though. Enjoy. Quote Link to comment
