Once again,
I went to Petco (don't judge, I know, I'm crazy) but we needed mysis shrimp...lol..
2 weeks ago, we went an purchased microvert...I found a baby bubble tip nem in one of the tanks....didn't look good OBVIOUSLY....I gave them advice...the dude said he'd take it, he seemed pretty geniune...but I guess not...
Today, I went and looked for the bubble tip..and couldn't find it...at first ..
Under closer inspection...we found it...all shriveled and being ate by a hermit crab...
I was very upset...and asked my husband if I could buy it...the price said $30...I didn't care because I just wanted to save it...it wasn't dead yet.. wounded yes...but it was TRYING HARD to live...
My husband said "no" naturally...why spend $30 on a dying nem...right?
Well then we got the idea to barter with her...or at least try...and she did...I explained to her the condition and how we know what they need ect..
She gave it up for $14.99...
Worth it to me...so we got it...I'll include pics....I will be attempting to revive it.. and it's showing good signs/progress already
You can see where it was torn...we took it out of the bag after acclimation and it instantly attached to my husband's hand first sign of hope . It can still stay secured to a rock...for a moment all the tenticles bubbled up, as if to say thank u...but maybe I'm crazy...more pics later
