![]() Hey guys,
I bought a seahare and put it in my tank. It was very active at first, picking at my hair algae, but never eating tons. He would always climb up the glass and just walk around the sand and rocks. The next few days he wasnt as active and would only move around a fraction as much as he did before. Now for the last few days I havent seen him anywhere in my tank. All of my powerheads are covered up, so he didnt get sucked into any. I don't feel like tearing apart my aquascape to look for him. Anyone ever encounter a similar experience? |

![]() i once turned my pumps on and blew my seahare into my jawfishes cave. never saw him again. bought another 3 monthes later still doing fine sometimes he goes behind the rockscape. sometimes when i cant find him he is at the top of my tank under the trim(?) where i cannot see him without looking real hard. i have had this one for 3 weeks now. as long as he has algae on the glass rocks etc he shhould be fine. i have never had any issies with my inverts and seahare either.

![]() I just have the worst luck with there. The first one I bought got sucked into a powerhead. The second was really slow at first and then motionless the next day, dead. And now this one disappeared. Ugh....
I have noticed in the back corner of my tank there are a bunch of empty snail shells accumulating. Maybe something is eating my snails and this seahare? |

![]() i have notices my hermits killing my margarita snails for the shells but wouldnt think they would have any interest in my seahare. its hard to tell how many as my jawfish grabs any shell burying them in his doorway so my rusty angel cant get in .

![]() I got a seahare last week too. I threw him in the tank and I had to step out right away. Anyways I look for him every night but havnt seen him once since I initially put him in the tank. Hair algae is the same... just weird.
