My peppermint lives in a hole on the right side of my tank and is scared to venture very far. I think I need one for the left side of the tank. Lol maybe you need one for the back side.Just waiting for the peppermint shrimp lol they cleared the front of the display which is good but left the back and I’m cool for now as long as they stay back there
Ima get a couple more and pray lol this guy also came from the gulf rock , and I had mine shipped dry no rush 3 days no idea how everything was still alive lolMy peppermint lives in a hole on the right side of my tank and is scared to venture very far.

We had ours picked up at the airport. So it didn't have the 3 days. I was quite amazed at the rock though. There may be one of those mantis in the rest of the rock I took more smaller pieces.Ima get a couple more and pray lol this guy also came from the gulf rock , and I had mine shipped dry no rush 3 days no idea how everything was still alive lol
I only bought 10 lbs so it wasn’t too much ,We had ours picked up at the airport. So it didn't have the 3 days. I was quite amazed at the rock though. There may be one of those mantis in the rest of the rock I took more smaller pieces.
Well thats a terrible thought lol I grabbed 10 lbs as well.I only bought 10 lbs so it wasn’t too much ,
I think the mantis was an egg or something because I didn’t start hearing the clicking until 2-3 months later
See thats what I thought as well abput the gulf aiptasia but not sure.If this is wild gulf rock, if it’s aptasia, last I knew gulf Aiptasia don’t spread like pacific Aiptasia. That said, both could potentially be baby Curley Que anemones
Ok so good worm????Thats actually a worm. Similar to spaghetti worms.

Whew.... I'm just gonna stop looking at my tank at night. I saw a truck load of bristle worms a few mins ago hoping none were fireworks not worried about the regular bristles. I shall go to bed and stop peeking at my tank. My Dad always said nothing good happens after midnight!Ya its good. Particulate filter feeder.

You'd be surprised what else will turn up. I found new stuff on my live rock after 2 month not noticing. Amazing coz it would have been out of the water multiple times. Here a little list of some of the critters I inherited:Whew.... I'm just gonna stop looking at my tank at night.

@Eagle_Steve is the go to for Florida ‘pest’ anemone ID’s,
That looks like a tiny light bulb anemone. But hard to really tell when I zoom in. I see almost bubbles with a thin tip at the end.@Eagle_Steve is the go to for Florida ‘pest’ anemone ID’s,
