So of course on the last day home, I find what looks to be some sort of sea spider. I should have taken a picture in the tank before I pulled it but I didn’t want to lose it.

Thin legs unlike a zoa spider, crawled off a monti I was moving from a plug to the scape.

These are the best pictures I could get. It had a very distinct walk with segmented legs.

Eek. Interested to see if someone can ID this. Hopefully it is harmless.

@Dsnakes, did you give your wife your login so she can keep us updated with the tank

By looking on a quick ID reference...your Charlotte may be Anoplodactylus pygmaeus or petiolatus. Look and see what you think.

I’ll be relaying all the info! I took final pictures today to compare growth. It’s only had water for 4 months so it’ll double in age while I’m gone!

If she gets my login she’ll see how many times I’ve bought coral ;Dead

Ask your wife to text pics of your tank so you can post them on here.

Best of luck with your time away and tank sitter!

No pictures to update yet, but I saw through FaceTime that the tank is still alive and happy :)

I was able to bargain for a few pictures of the tank. Hopefully this coming weekend I’ll get some daytime pics. Her schedule makes it tough during the week. I think things are going well.

Snails knocked a few corals over. She glued back what she could. Might lose an sps that began RTN after laying in the sand for a day or 2. I’m not too worried about that.
