Neal, not necessarily, they are supposed to be very good at disguising themselves, and they are nocternal, it is not uncommon not to see them for a long time, months even, when the population builds and they start venturing out of the rock in search of food. They are so small, any sized rock could hide many many of them, so keep the temperature steady in the tank, do regular water changes and be patient I guess!

That said, I am having trouble keeping mine in containers, psyire I really need to know if you have someone picking them up or not tommorow at my work! Yours are still alive but I think barely, same with mine.

FunkyFish, what might you be doing differently? I am feeding them whole live aiptasia I collected off my sandbed, as well as smaller pieces, I am keeping their temperature steady, and doing a small water change every day, because they create one hell of a mess eating the aiptasia!
