I have a new piece of LR that I put in a few weeks ago and noticed a few things living on it.
A. Some sort of clam that is upside down. His "foot" comes out of the front. I am assuming that this is some sort of an oyster. It doesn't have anything that hangs out of the crack or opening of the shell. I know that it is living because anytime that I get near the tank it closes. Any ideas? I can post pictures if need be.
B. Also, I have something that is living in a hole. It looks like a venus fly trap. It has a shell similar to a clam or oyster. The inside of this creature is black. It looks similar to the antennas that a black ribbon eel has. It hangs out of the shell and seems to suck water through this opening and expels it through a hole in the shell. The shell that this guy lives in has whiskers on the end that looks like course hair. This is the one that will be difficult to post a picture of because it can hear, and I assume that it can see. Anytime I get close to the tank it will close itself tight against the rock and blends in well. So taking a picture is near impossible. Any ideas?
