Post by: Gary on May 10, 2016, 02:58:18
To All,
Great idea Mike suggesting invertebrates, but lets limit the theme for POTM for May 2016 to the best photo of a starfish, crab, or snail! Please submit your photos for the POTM for May 2016 to this post!
Thanks,

I know Steve is gonna call me out on this pic, but I just took it a few days ago and I really like it. (It's why I recommended invert pics) :silence:

It is an invasion! Emerald crabs are hiding everywhere! Where is your photo of something? I would take a photo if I could find something to photograph and a camera at the same time.

Nice photo! He looks very healthy and industrious. Mine just watch the algae grow and think about cleaning the glass or sand.

I've had him a couple months now.  He seems to be doing well...he managed to find a nice high flow spot behind my rocks lol hasn't moved since but eats a ton.

He certainly looks very nice and healthy. They do move to where they want to be, which is not always where we want them. Lol.

Yeah I like my olive snail keep him fed enough that he doesn't eat my other snails or scallops but at the same time he isn't quiet reef safe :D

There are a few other critters that are not reef safe but if well fed leave the other meals alone. Sometimes you get lucky and sometime you don't. Apparently you are lucky!
Thanks,
Gary
