Look what came out of my rock.

I reaquascaped today :-\. And I had leftover rock that i wanted to get rid of so I took a picture of it while it laid on a piece of styrofoam. When I put the rock back in the rubbermaid, this thing was sitting there all slimy. This is the biggest one if ever seen in person.

If anyone wants it let me know. It's sitting in a 10gallon along with a very large cleaner shrimp, a RBTA, my Desarjini :'(, and my Orange Sleeper Goby. All of which are going to be given to Will at Aquatic Obsessions.

My Desarjini and my Achilles fight too much and my Achilles isn't going anywhere.

I also got rid of my Chromis so i'm gonna get some Anthias.
 
i saw one crawling on my sand bed the other day and i thought it was huge. but it was only a third the size of that one. let me know if you need an extra hand moving anything mike.
 
Thanks Tom. I think I'm good for now.

All i gotta do now is treat my fragtank w/interceptor while my main tank is without SPS completely for a minimum of 6 days. I'm gonna do 14 days just to be safe. Then i'm gonna QT and treat every single thing that goes in there.

damn i would have taken the sailfin

Jabis, how's your system. He's a really aggresive fish and that's why he's going. He should be a "last fish in" type of deal. He grows to about 15" so nothing under 180.
 
Wow. Leave him in a friends bed as an April fools joke. I am sure he send a prickly jolt.

That's a good reminder to wear gloves moving rock!

lol. and good point about the gloves.
 
mike .. i just removed one around 12 inches long a few weeks ago...
i think that once they get bigger then 4-6 inches or so they become destructive to your corals (mine was eating my zoa's)
someone sugested to me to find a fowlr tank to put him in to keep the sandbed clean.
happy reefing.......al

That's a fire bristle worm, a coral eater. The smaller brown / tan ones are detritus eaters and harmless.

I am not so sure - Hermodice carunculata typically has white bristles....google the latin name and check out the images. The fact that mike found it in his LR (instead of munching away on his coral) also makes me think this is just a big bristle worm...
 
The picture actually makes it look like a big earth worm. But it did have some white. Not all the bristles but the ones closer to the head. Definitely wasn't eating coral though.
