I just got these, first time trying hammers. They are bouncing around pretty good. And some of the tentacles are blowing upside down on one of them.

They seem happy and fluffy though. I did capture a short video. But mute your sound before playing it.

I didn’t think to check until just now and I don’t know how to mute it in YouTube.

Okay cool. Just didn’t wanna leave them there all night if they weren’t.

Thanks a bunch. I figured they were fine as I did see how small they can get when retracted. But I’m still learning.

Better that then the, “is this dead?”, post tomorrow.
 
Seems ok but hammers prefer to be off the sand. You can mount them on a piece of rock rubble.
 
Good to know, they are on little acrylic plug holders, I’ll try and bump them up a bit higher. I got a few pieces in there somewhere I can use. Or a snail shell.

I haven’t seen either sending sweepers out yet. I hid them on the backside of the scape so hopefully they couldn’t reach anything else if they did.
