Felicia Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Oh no! I was hoping they'd each end up with one and then be able to split it to have both. Sorry to hear they're both pomless now. Regardless, they're still very cool looking crabs. Link to comment

surgicalsense Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I don't think anyone can beat the size of your trochus? snail, Danielle. That guy is truly a monster...but so cool That thing is just ridiculous in size L, has offically named it, Dozer. Because the way it just plows and runs over anything in its path. Knocks over coral if I do not it glued down. Runs over the mini ceriths Link to comment
FlCandy Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 HA! Crazy snail! My hermits look like spazes when I feed them they come running from all over the tank! Link to comment

surgicalsense Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Gena... you did say you had extra filter socks you do not need? If so I would like to take those of your hands, specially if you need to purge them Link to comment
Felicia Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Haha, nope he just has the one little eye hole. He likes to be stealth and never stick his head out of the shell because he can see out his peep hole. Link to comment
gena Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 Gena... you did say you had extra filter socks you do not need? If so I would like to take those of your hands, specially if you need to purge them I have one that I never used (got it from Vivid). It was bigger than I needed. You are welcome to it In other news..... My pom pom crabs continue to entertain me. After the initial battle for poms (the female even lost a leg), and subsequent roll in the hay..I now find them tonight sitting "together" (like an old couple). They seem content just to be near each other now. Unfortunately I can't get a shot of both when the lights are on. They are only together at lights out. Here they are The other couple in the tank (my GBGs) make me laugh. She doesn't seem to be letting him near her. If he even gets a little close, she darts away. She's definitely playing hard to get Haha, nope he just has the one little eye hole. He likes to be stealth and never stick his head out of the shell because he can see out his peep hole. That is so funny! What a character. Hopefully he doesn't ever change his shell. Link to comment
gena Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 I placed an order with Reef-cleaners today. I picked items that were express shipping, which I always avoided in the past. I like the cheap priority shipping I got a nice assortment of items. I wanted that electric blue hermit but refrained. I think it would bulldoze my tank. I've had one in the past. Darn....I probably should have gotten it. Oh well...maybe next trip to Vivid. That's where I got my others. Link to comment
