OK, so I have my 10gal that I keep talking about but not showing to you (I WILL attach a FTS as it stands right now just for you then), and I just purchased a blue leg hermit that just WON'T move... he's in, acclimated for 2hrs (started with drip, slowly dumped water etc)... but he just won't leave the spot I put him on... he IS alive, I moved him a round a bit and he moves and is flicking his stalk things he has (not quite the antennae) as if eating, but that's it... I was feeding today so I turned off the p-head (my fish eat with it on regularly), and I spot fed him a mysis shrimp; he ate it without hesitation... not rushing though, just plain old meal. But he WON'T move!

any ideas? p.s. he's been in there for over 24hrs now

also, this I know what happened and all, I'm just angry at myself... I was moving the frogspawn a bit because it was overlapping with a r. florida that is growing very well, and well, I "decided" to use the turkey baster... you can see where this is going: I ended up squeezing the baster and sucking in (and cutting off) a few tentacles... I felt terrible! I butchered my best coral! this frag (3 heads) has grown really well in my tank this summer, now one of the heads looks like jack the ripper took a swing at it! aarrgh!! I KNOW it will grow back and recover, but geez!

anyways, here's the tank shot. Oh wait, list of stuff in here: 2 astrea snails, 1 stomatella snail (hitchhiker), blue hermit crab (nameless still), o. clown (Xavi), yellow watchman goby (Hank), small GSP, 4 branches of green candy cane (diff. sizes), 2 red mushrooms (one huge one a baby), a few red zoas, some orange soaz (frag plug), a green/lilac mushroom covered rock (with AN orange zoa for good measure), a red/green small brain, orange/purple r. florida (big), orange/green r. florida (medium), green r. florida (small), the spirit of 3 long gone sexy shrimps and a nassarius snail, and a butchered frogspawn 3 head...
