Anything exciting happen? How about the trades?

Tiger tail cucumber question?

Like I mentioned, they are not too active during the day. If there is light in the tank, they'll just hang out under the rocks.

Tiger tail cucumber question?

I've got two tiger-tail cukes in my tank, and I don't feed them anything. They happily snack on the sand all night long, eating whatever detritus, bacteria, algae, etc they find.

Hey Flame, nothing personal intended. I wasn't knocking the Kent unit, it's one of the best you can buy. It was just for comparison purposes.
