I wouldn't mind having them in one of my nanos, I kinda like them, they have there place, but I can see that you have to be careful about putting them in a large tank, kindof like mushrooms they can really get away from you if you don't watch it

I just had someone over this weekend that wanted a frag of these. I told him "No, I wouldn't wish these things on anyone". lol

I still remember the frag that I bought years ago that had them on it. Why did I buy that frag??????

I do want to get rid of these........Would putting the rock out in the cold/snow for a few days do the trick? Then start a rinse/leach process......

Remove all your livestock, use an underwater speaker and any song by lady gaga. They should melt..
thats too funny i think her songs are worse than some of the rap out there....maybe if he puts a steak hat on that would make them die quicker

So the only real solution is to pull the rock and start over??? I'm sure that is not what you wanted to hear. Unless you get a really hungry flame angel, and I still can't see that getting rid of it all.

This thread was resurrected.

I don't even care to rid them anymore. These things sell like crazy at the swaps. Go figure!

I always try and warn everyone. I had some in a local shop and they slowly withered away. If it wasn't a sps tank I would raise the nutrient level.

Long spine urchins and tiger cowries munch on them, just not fast enough.
