ClaytonG Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Reminds me of a Bobbit Worm. Link to comment
ExSmoker Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Looks like a crab, but with 3 claws? huh! Maybe its shedding and got hungry half way through? Link to comment
Tanks Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 not a bobbit.. bobbits have the "ring armor".. this is more scales with white stubby spikes..its shades of purple and white.. i THINK I can see long legs holding it down from top of hole its coming out of.. it really looks freaky Link to comment
Islandoftiki Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Can you get a video of it? Link to comment
Tanks Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 not right now.. its pulled back into hole some.. so hard to focus on it with camera I have. Our Vid camera died so would have to use my phone one.. pictures ok off it.. video.. not so much.. =/ will keep trying Link to comment

Psychosis Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Wait, this looks kind of familiar. I'm going to guess (emphasis on guess) that it's a feather duster that dropped its crown and has no tube. 2 Link to comment
ExSmoker Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Did you get an ID yet? Any videos? Photos? Link to comment
Belac Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 That is freaky looking. 2 Link to comment
Tanks Posted February 11, 2013 Author Share Posted February 11, 2013 no id yet..we tried to tempt it out other night with a shrimp pellet but it retracted further in. We will figure this out..looks like its matter of patience. Link to comment
metrokat Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Wait, this looks kind of familiar. I'm going to guess (emphasis on guess) that it's a feather duster that dropped its crown and has no tube. I thought about that too but It is too skinny to be a duster. Here are pics of what it looks like without a tube and crown. http://www.nano-reef.com/index.php?showtopic=287975&p=3626752 1 Link to comment

ExSmoker Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Cant you take that rock out of tank and place a heater and powerhead in a bucket? just long enough to make it come out of the rock! I still think its a crab(becuse of the shape of the arm, however the "CLAW" is abnormal for sure. Link to comment
ExSmoker Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 for your sake I hope its not somthing like this photo :-P http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/3749453/images/1234974179546.jpg Link to comment
