Does anyone read these??
So this weekend was a good and not so good for my 90g reef tank. On Friday night I bought two golden head sleeper gobies (one for my tank one for my daughter's), two PJ Cardinals, and a small Copper-Band Butterfly. The Copper and the PJs weren't really a great buy as the copper and one of the PJ's didn't even last 24 hours. They wound up getting picked off by something during the night and they are gone without a trace.
Also went to Golds and got two corals and a rock with macro algae. You would not believe the amount of red worms I got off them when I dipped them. I bought a white bubble coral as well as a peach and baby blue acropora. The acropora was clean but the bubble had at least thirty red worms come off in the dip. I left it in for extra long and blasted the rock with a syringe to make sure that the dip got into all the crevices etc. Also sprayed the coral but more gently. The rock with macro was covered in worms and slugs as well. I pulled off seven large slugs, an emerald crab (freebie woohoo!), three blue-legged hermits, three or four unknown snails, and some sort of polyp (looked like an anemone). Of course it was infested with worms too. The dip looked like a worm collector when I was finished.
Right now they are in a QT and I'm going to dip them again before they go into my DT. Pictures to follow.
