wish they wasn't jumpers.

They sure are. I have a simple red firefish and he tried to take the leap of faith right when I added him to the tank. Flew straight up out of the tank about a foot in the air and luckily went straight back down LOL. to my knowledge hasn't tried since. I have a screen anyway

Forgot to mention this - my bigger hippopus broke - no idea how. Noticed it about a week ago, his shell split down the bottom. Absolutely zero signs of it affecting him. Did some research last night on treating and it seems like they just take awhile to heal but most clams do just fine. Everything I can find says keep calcium at the 450 range and dose strontium. My strontium gets dosed regularly with moonshiner so I just increased calcium a little (was running about 420). Looking through rocks tonight or Saturday to try to prop him up a little better so it heals correctly. He's still fully open and happy as can be though. Anyone know the cause for something like that?

I'm hope Nima at Seattle corals did you right with the worm rock...if he didn't let me know haha

Seriously this cute rock and can't wait for more pics!
super happy with it! even better price than what you screenshotted me. Tons of worms were out within 15-20 minutes of adding it to the tank, only thing that might be an issue is the melanurus showing it a little more attention than I'm comfortable with right now. If he doesn't get himself under control, he'll be moving to the sump. He's the only fish causing problems with anything lately.

hence the saying "happy as a clam."
