So I went to get a fish and a brittle star from a lady. When I got there the tank was in such a state of horror. No light. No heater. No mechanical filtration. It looks like the “live” rock was dead, and covered in some type of coral-like red tube worm things. But…..on the bottom of the tank, and wedged in a crevice of a rock we’re these two guys. No, I didn’t use the live rock. It’s in fresh salt water outside (Florida, 78 degrees outside rn), incase I find more corals when I have time. But these two were holding on for dear life. I have no idea what kind they are. I THINK I have them on the frag rocks in the correct orientation.
I dipped them already but i didn’t have a choice and in the DT they went after acclimation and the 15min dip. does anyone have a guess as to what these are?
