He was going through my snails, corals and occasional fish like it was going out of style, I tried to grab him with prongs twice and once ripped off 2 legs and he was still fine, only option I had left before he did any more damage was to skewer him.

should have ate him haha.. he did eat all your hardwork.

So I did a 20% water change today and it apparently signified a fiesta celebration for the micro brittles in my tank. Check out all the arms in the picture. There were some riding the polyps of the various corals in my tank too, it was hilarious. The picture doesn't really do it justice, usually you can only see maybe 30-50 out and today it was in the hundreds easily.

5 years ago I lost my mind the first time i saw an amphipod at night, then i was convinced my isopods were going to eat all the fish and corals in my tank, then some orange coraline started growing and i was sure it was orange death... one thing i have learned looking at fish tanks is relaxing, owning them is NOT.

Biggest thing is to just chill because it will all balance out eventually, throwing money at a problem might speed up the fix, but overall time is what fixes all in the reef tank.

well another lovely creepy thing, glad i spotted this one.
just grab a green shroom from J&L, got home, pulled it out of the bag and looked in the bag, what i thought was a long piece of poo or something turned out to be a Syllidae
