I am treating my acros for aefw in my hospital tank and over the weekend I did my dips and set one of the racks outside to dry in the sun. I set it outside around noon on Saturday and then around 3pm Sunday i went to bring it inside and saw that there was a snail on the ground below it that I missed. I picked it up and smelled it and since there was no smell I set it on the frag rack in my display just in case. Sure enough, about 2 hours later I see it crawling down the glass.

Aside from being out of the water for over 24 hours, the temp swung from 90s-60s back to upper 80s.

And people worry about drip acclimating them...lol
 
Intertidal critters are bad***. :cool:
