gena Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Well, Ranga -aka, Jack Squat is still alive. He was back to waving his little arms around and swiping mysis tonight. Curious as to how big they get.....anyone know? Is it a porcelain crab? Those blastos and the acans too for that matter . 1 Quote Link to comment
jack1978 Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 Is it a porcelain crab? Those blastos and the acans too for that matter . Thanks, G! I'm loving the new blastos......especially the green rimmed ones....so fluffy :^ ) The general consensus on Jack Squat is a squat lobster. I threw a picture of his molt up within the last page or two......he was a hitchhiker on the yellow fiji from Vivid. He's grown a ton and lives under the blue acans. 4 Quote Link to comment
ReefWeeds Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Oooooooh, the green, plating coralline..........that's some rare stuff from what I understand. Yes!!! That's it! Want me to send you some? Yellow-ringed Acans looking nice.... Jacks Soft Lemonade Tree before lights on.....getting bigger. He'll expand another 30 % or so when lights kick on. Blasto Island looking good. The 2 new additions.....the Green Blasto with purple centers and the all purple blasto is starting to show green in the centers....hoping it continues to become a reverse of each other. Here's the patients recovering from severe neglect......there is a few more pieces outside of this grouping They look awesome!! I'm so excited! Well, Ranga -aka, Jack Squat is still alive. He was back to waving his little arms around and swiping mysis tonight. Curious as to how big they get.....anyone know? I don't think they get very big at all -maybe a couple inches? You can eat him if he gets outta line! He's langostino - a lot of restaurants use that in place of lobster and call it lobster 3 Quote Link to comment
