Now I gotta try and get that damn thing out of the hole in my rock and bitch at the guy that sold it to me saying that it was safe with corals and other inverts...

it was in the new and noteworthy page. and they usually remove pic and quick info when it's sold or else.

I hope you didn't spend too much money on that.

Well, the damn thing cost me $40 and about an hour of playing hide and seek. I finally caved and moved my corals and live rock around so that I could finally catch the beast. Its going to be spending the night in a large ice cream tub until tomorrow when I go have a little chat with the lfs.

My issue is that he flat out lied to me when I asked if it was reef safe and whether it would play nice with my other tank mates. If they had that info on their site and then removed it, my guess is it was due to ppl not wanting to buy it with that disclaimer.

Now I'm out $40, a murdered strawberry snail, a messed up rock layout, a cloudy tank, and a crab which I feel bad about putting in isolation.

All I know is, they better give me my full refund tomorrow and not that 1/2 price credit crap.

the employee may not be aware of the web site. In this hobby, I always find it's better to do your own research. Even at that, a reef safe fish/invert may one day turn and acquire the taste for all your nice corals. For some reason they tend to leave all less colorful alone.
