There was also this crazy thing that came out of the rock the night I got it. I can’t upload pictures of it crawling out of the rock because Reef2Reef keeps saying security error because it thinks it’s soemthing it’s not lololol. Here it is all the way out:
874586F0-880A-4D27-886E-CEAC5453B23A.jpeg

I don’t believe it’s an anemone, @Eagle_Steve thinks it’s related to sea apples and cucumbers which I could definitely see. It’s very Holothurian like. Now it’s buried the tan fleshy part down into the sandbed, and the flashy tail it sticks above the sand at night. It’s starting to produce a mucus tube, when I turn the lights on it stays out for about three hours but shrinks, then retracts into its tube. If anyone knows the species please serve thoust information forth. In PMs I have referred to it as the ‘Sea Weewee’ due to Reef2Reef’s security errors every time I tried to upload a photograph of it. XD
too cool

Now that I see that pic, it looks like a Arachnanthus nocturnus. Native to Florida and Caribbean. It is a tube nem and will eat small fish lol. it will also eat most shrimps. Coral banded and pistols are usually fine, as they know to stay away. Cleaners, not so much and probably will get eaten.

They like nice meaty food, but be sure it is small bits.
