It's my goal to one day have a proper Lysiosquillina maculata tank, for it's size and fierceness, they're such massive impaling monsters. And I think a DSB with a lurking ambush predator would be the...

I still haven't even mustered up the guts to sacrifice a crab yet. Ever since I stabbed my first rock crab, I've felt guilty. I don't know if this little guy is going to be taking out crabs any time...

Yeah, I'm tried of picking them off the glass, time to EXIT! Unfortunately, I got my mantis and his LRubble from the LFS (Local Flatworm Store).

I'll be sure to keep an eye out for you, this isn't the first one I've seen there. I think most of the rock they find them in is from the keys, so it would most likely be one of the local species.

Yeah, it might be negligible, but better not to add it on purpose when there are plenty of Fe alternatives. More Plantex for my FW plants, that's all. :)

Yeah, this macro tank is also a mantis tank for the time being, so good thing you pointed that out, I wasn't sure if that was a negligible level or not. Better safe than sorry I suppose. Thanks R!
