I hadn’t even though about the sweepers :::facepalm::: I’ll double check it with a ruler. My husband and I always disagree on how big an estimated inch is :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:
General rule of thumb, sweepers can get double the open length of the head. Frog/octo even longer. Plan for their bad days.

Inches are stupid. We should all use metric anyway.

Thanks!! That is helpful! It’s probably why the colt seems a bit happier since the move it was sitting pretty close down stream prior to :oops:

Here is my murder hermit. He picked off 9 of his comrades. Slowly, but he was discovered in the end to be the reason for their demise. He now lives out his days in the evo and in solitary confinement. I’m too scared to add him to the biocube, for fear he will go after my lovely scarlet. He is an algae eating machine though, and the biocube CUC could really use some more help keeping that in check. He is a monster, and yet I love him.

Alright, I'll admit. That's a very pretty murderer.

Ok cool thanks.. the Duncan is currently back to being upstream from the hammer and I was wondering if that could be why the hammer is still sulking. I just want it to be happy like is Jason’s tank. It’s giving me anxiety :grinning-squinting-face: :::insert eye twitch emoji::::

Y'all combined are anxiety machines!

Euphyllia in my experience is sulky for at least a day after moving. Give it a week.

I would also advise against measuring your success, to how things look in Jason's tanks. He's got the Magic Sauce!
