Hello Reefers


My name is Eric.
At the moment I am cycling my first Reef Tank (13g nano tank).

I got a little Hitchhiker on the life-rock. It is around 5mm (0,2 inch) in diameter. My question to you is: What is it? I have a guess, but I do not want to bias the answers. A photo is attached to this post.

I discovered it while it was moving around the tank (I think it was trying to escape the ammonia peak). Its mouth was wide open. I have put it into a quarantine-bucket with a dead rock and some lighting. Now that the ammonia is gone (2ppm Nitrite is still left) I have put it into the tank again. It seems to do better now.


Thank you for your support and best regards

Eric

WHEN PLANNING CORAL PLACEMENT, WHAT USUALLY WINS? THE FUTURE COLONY, OR THE NEXT FRAG?

  • I leave plenty of open space for large future colonies

    Votes: 4 25.0%

  • I plan for growth...but occasionally squeeze coral into tight spaces

    Votes: 6 37.5%

  • I try to balance future growth with variety now

    Votes: 4 25.0%

  • I fit in as many frags as I reasonably can

    Votes: 3 18.8%

  • One more frag always wins! Future me can solve the problem...

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • It depends on the coral and how quickly it grows

    Votes: 1 6.3%

  • I squeeze 'em in! Survival of the fittest, baby!!

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • I’m already out of room, so apparently we know my answer...
