What is a sea slug. I have a few snails. Is that what you mean. I also have a crab and a huge banded coral shrimp

Have a look at thread I posted above and in posts I said,I think 13 and 15 on the thread, there is a few videos
Here you go ,make it easier for you ^_^

Whats this ? Sea slug/ cucumber ?

Just found 3 of these sea slug/ cucumber/nudi looking things. Hasn't got the frilly Gill things that nudis have on their back so probably rules that out. It's on a gsp that just bought and camouflage quite good same colour as top of gsp frag like browny/ white,2 are very small like 8-12 mm long...

And here thread I started with some videos and some replys off what people thought they was,have a read through it if you find anything similar on your gsp ,there been loads off threads in last few months off these same sea slugs ,mainly on gsp .
Again I'm not saying you got these,just to have a look if so,as been so many lately in threads.
Good luck

What test kit do you use that only has colors? Never heard of such a thing. Most all kits use colors but they always correspond to a value.

Not being mean, but get better test kits. Seifert, Hanna, red sea are good ones

8.4 ph, .25ppm ammonia, 0 ppm nitrite and 5.0 ppm nitrate. I just did a water change today after I did my test. The owner of the store I use said I need to do 25% change every 10 days. That's impossible with my schedule and a 120 gallon tank

Why you need to change so much water so frequently? Stability is one of the key factors for healthy reef tank.

I don't that's what he told me. I thought it was a lot too

Get some tests or have your LFS test your water for you. Report back some numbers for us to go off of.

I have had 6 gsp in over 3 years and they never last more than a week. Any ideas why. The last one was doing great then around the 7th day when I got up there were no signs of the green tentacles. It's been two weeks since and all nothing. I really could use some help. Everyone says they are easy and take over but mine always die

Hmmmm- trouble free specimen for me. It generally requires no more than moderate to medium water flow and moderate light with blue spectrum and a little content of iron and stronium in water and if doing water changes reularly, no need to add anything.
They usually go down when their is insufficient flow and detritus becomes settled on them. They are also PH sensitive.
