LOL....Thanks for thinking of me! I would love that crab to get in my tank to kill the other one! At least this one may have a fighting chance! :)

That sucks Ben! I am sorry to hear that! Your two new ones look pretty happy though! My only experience with sudden death is a stupid crab killing them but I don't think you have one of them in your tank.

No, no more fish have been killed yet. I leave tomorrow until Thursday and then it will be on that weekend. I will try pulling everything out again and go hunting all day until I get him. (Well actually, I will be doing it during the night because our whole neighborhood is having a garage sale...

lol.....Unfortunately I still have yet to get him. There was a giant sand storm in my tank and once again he got away. I tried to section it off and pull some of the rock out of one side of the tank but as I was sliding the partition down he scooted right under it. This happened and a couple of...

lol....I cant believe i still dont have him! I did tear my tank apart however I dont have the holding tanks for all my corals. This may be my next step though! I am going to try the hot water and maybe have the harpoon on an acrylic rod on the side just in case things get out of hand! I was...

lol....I like your thinking! Anybody got another 265 gal for sale?! :) I'm betting on 2 and 3 as well....However I am going to give the divide and conquer a shot and then use the boiling water to make it worth my while! :heh: :boink:

lol...He is still laughing at me. I haven't had much time the last few days to get in there. I like the divide and conquer method. However, I have so many corals in there it really makes it hard to move the rock around and not squish things. I will definitely give it a try though! It will have...

Your are correct in wanting to add the anemone before SPS for the fact that anemones often move until they are happy and may sting all of your other corals while doing so. However, sometimes they like to move just because. So either way, before SPS or after its always going to be a possibility.

I was trying all night last night too. I tore my tank apart chasing this thing and smashed my brain coral, broke off some giant green hairy mushrooms, fragged my tricolor, and scared the crap out of all my fish and still couldn't get to this thing. Like Jesse said, this guys is fast as hell. I...

Yeah well now he is in hiding. I have been going down there about every hour and havent seen him since my last shank attempt. Here is a pic of his molt from about two weeks ago. I was so excited when I saw it because I thought my trigger finally killed him but no luck. It was just his molt. At...

Bad crab...kill him! jk but seriously, bad crab.

Okay Okay Okay.....I will give it a shot! lol...Its a pun, get it....a shot...lol...Nevermind, I am just a little out of it because of the lack of sleep and partial hang over....

:jaw: Holy Acans! Very nice!

I would try to put it down into lower flow and see if that helps any. Maybe down on the sand bed even...

I would hold off on the anemone for at least a year while your tank stabilizes. They can be very sensitive when it comes to chemistry levels in the water. They are awesome I would just be careful not to add it too soon. I know what you mean by the shimmer of MH/LED's, that is a definite bonus to...

Wow! Your tank is looking awesome! If the stupid BTA would ever move he's yours but your clowns seem to like that brain a lot!

I was really close today but my knife just glazed off his shell. I tried to harpoon him with my acrylic rod but it wasn't strong enough and just slid off as well... :(

I looks like they are barely closed up like they may be getting too much flow or light. I also heard that zoas like a little more dirty water because they are found in lagoons where there are plenty of nutrients. Other than that like Faciosity said, sometimes they just close up for no reason and...

Cant see red light my butt! I dont know if it was just the glow from the head lamp its self but i would get close to the little Ba$%@&* he would scoot away into the rock work. The down side to using the parachute idea is he never goes on the sand bed. He hangs under the rocks and then scoots...

Have you though of a fire fish? They are a pretty cool mid water fish.
