Scavenger's Guess My Pest Contest.
I have a hickhiker in my tank. He's killed fish, moved rocks, and lives in a rock I pulled a 1.5 foot Eunicid worm from during curing approx 3 months ago. The 12 pound rock has holes up to about 2 inches across. No additional rock or coral to tank since.
The Facts starting about 3 weeks ago: 2 dead fish- 4 inch Longnose Butterfly found wedged in rocks with large chunks missing at lights on. 2 inch Regal Tang, no body found. At lights on and shortly after lights out scraping/banging noises heard from tank. 1 small rock size of golf ball size moved about 6 inches across and 5 inches up tank to cover hole in the suspected home rock of pest. Frequent rocks of various size found fallen from original placement in morning. 1 trumpet coral 3 heads missing OK here's the contest: Name the pest, and guess the size. Bottle trap goes into tank tonight. Contest runs until pest caught and photo'ed. Closest guess wins bragging rights. ****edit*** Thinking about it. I'm going to up the stakes since I had such great reviews on the mural thread I posted http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=53322 . Winner gets a 16X20 original landscape painting by yours truly. |

My guess is that when you removed the first Eunicid you either broke off a piece, and a new one grew back, or there were two. So I guess Eunicid, 16". :D
I have a second guess too, can I get two?? :lol: |
