 it's living in my brain coral hi folks, i wish i could get a pic of this thing, but i can't cuz it seems to be living in my brain coral. my brain coral has two little holes in it. in one of the holes i can see something moving around at night, it looks like a worm or perhaps a shrimp because i see two little appendages that look like they going from the coral to the "things" mouth. i'm sorry to be so vague but it never removes itself from the coral so i have an extremely limited view and therfore no pictures. does anyone have any idea what would bore into my brain coral and set up house? should i panic? btw, brain coral doesn't seem any worse for wear. it's doing relatively well.  |

| Re: it's living in my brain coral If the Brain is okay, then you have nothing to worry about. actually it sound like some kind of crab of sorts. will remain a mystery until it shows itself. Happy Reefing!

| Re: it's living in my brain coral yeah i've stopped worrying....it definately isn't hurting the brain cuz it has grown like crazy. i see that you have a 120 gallon. i'm totally envious. i'm hoping to upgrade from my 55 gallon soon. i've barely had it a year. i'm trying to find the right moment to tell hubby that the tank he just bought just won't do and i want a bigger one. |
