I got rid of my paly’s Back in January- no desire to keep a highly toxic - potentially lethal organism in the display - I don’t understand how they can be described as a good beginner’s softer. Not with an unsuspecting beginner - perhaps Julian Sprung is right - respect them - and imho in their natural habitats.

I agree. These really should only be sold to the advanced hobbyist. When I first started out handling these I would feel sick for hours. I don’t understand why they are not more widely recognized and labeled for what they really are. The vendors who sell these should be held responsible for providing this information. Unfortunately most are just out to make a quick buck.

I added a Bonded pr of Wheeler's Gobies with a Red Banded Pistol Shrimp & a Bonded Pr of Fire shrimp that I've never seen before. Instead of the white spots they actually have a white line that curves around the back of the head, I'll get pics when they let me. LOL

How did you get rid of them, i have a few that are attached to the same small rock the my Kenya Tree coral is attached to.

Fed em. Watched them for a bit, and had a long and in-depth conversation with my 4 year old grandson about why worms are good for fish even though they probably taste terrible.
Gotta love 4 year olds...

Test driving a Jebao DP-4, checking Ca and KH. 10 gal change on my 90 gal, caught a yellow tang, removed some Hollywood Stunner again, it grows fast, I love it but it stings my Red Planet. I can’t have that. That’s my favorite SPS so far. Tried to remove a Rose Bubble cause it split last night, and both of them in bad places. Guess I have to do a semi breakdown to move out. Guess I’m setting up a tank just for them. Can’t get rid of, like them way too much.

Thought this would be a fun thread.. So what did you do? Water change? Add that new fish you have been looking for for months? Maybe you finally got your recent build wet.
Let us know!! Pix always appreciated!!

For me, today was the day I pulled a TON of Palythoa Toxica that I have been meaning to remove for months. They were taking over a whole corner of the tank. So far... No I'll affects on yours truly, and hoping it stays that way!!

How about you?? Let's hear it!!
I bought a Diodogorgia nodulifera Gorgonian a new pink cabbage leather with green polyps 3 scarlet reef crabs and a brittle starfish cleaned the glass and moves a coralimorph that has never been happy
