    Hitch hiker

    I noticed a pile of shells in the front of my four month old tank. I started with live rock. In the middle of the pile I found this urchin. It doesn't look like a black rock boring or collector tuxedo urchin. Any ideas?

    Hey y'all, I am a new reefer just a week into cycling my 40 gal tank. I noticed some white tendrils floating off of an area of what I assumed was dead rock from my LFS.

The gsp has been doing great for a...

    Baby astrea or alien??

    Hey folks! I noticed this guy cruising around my tank a few weeks ago. Didn’t think much of it, honestly. Thought it might even be a baby astrea but I can’t tell (mainly because I’ve never seen a baby astrea). It’s not causing any harm to anything in the tank, just cruises around the glass and...
