SRC Member Earth Posted August 5, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted August 5, 2008 Hi Earth, i got the snail from coral farm, jus like bro solo mentions. i find them gd for sand bed and they tends to hid in the sand all the time and only certain time, they will come out for feeding.Well, bro Amby , so far there's no leak wattage in the tank. But i suspect its either the hole in the head disease or its being attack by a mantis in my tank. I've seen a mantis size abt 3 inch length Thanks bro.. I had that problem with the hole in the head on my goldflake angel recently, but phew... it survived the ordeal and fully recovered. I fed it with pellet soaked in kent marine zoe and zoecon daily and the injury seems to heal pretty fast.

SRC Member peacemaker Posted August 5, 2008 SRC Member Share Posted August 5, 2008 I second the hunting. A one-time major back-breaking work, but saves you sleepless nights wondering if the fishes are safe or not. Worth the trade, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member fishtalk1517 Posted August 6, 2008 Author SRC Member Share Posted August 6, 2008 Thank you all for the advice and gesture to render help for the suspect murderer of the blue tang and other little fishes. Well, the blue tang has rendered Her IC to the Sea Kingdom. The wound has spread and has effected both the eyes and has caused some blindness. Think due to the blindness, SHE has not been feeding and has been in hiding till HER pass on As for apprehending the suspect - "Mantis", i intend to deploy a trap instead of the worst scenario of rescaping. I have tonns of rocks and frags of corals here n there. Those who have seen my tank will know how its gonna be like to rescape. Well, I have been on the constant lookout for the mantis at night when lights are out. So as to spot him and brought HIM to justice Quote A person, himself can be his own Lawyer, but he can never be his own Judge ........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
