I know this sounds weird

[Wiz]

Oh yes. I have been waiting a while to get my hands on one. He will grow. And I am interested in getting more than one so that I can compare species. Such a cool Critter that nobody really wants. So many people just kill them it makes me so sad. I will give him a good home. I'm sure shipping him should not be very difficult I don't think that they are very delicate. Just let me know what it cost to ship and I will get it to you. I will even send it before you ship them so you know I'm good for it.

Wow didn't know you would be so excited over such a tiny guy! I don't plan on keeping it and would be more than happy to send him your way, although I have never in my life shipped anything live and I'd be paranoid that he wouldn't survive the trip.

 

[Wiz]

If for some reason it does not survive shipping Which I doubt, Don't feel too bad most people would have killed it anyway. I'll bet it does just fine though

 

[pbauec]

I call the next one! keep us posted on the shipment and new home.

 

[pbauec]

I would prefer a smaller one over a giant. It will be cool to watch home grow

 

[Wiz]

I have a bigger one coming from @Naiad . If he is successful in catching it. But if I find another after that I will definitely Point them your way. I am trying to get my hands on a few so that I can compare species and maybe even breed them. It is cool to know somebody else is interested though. And I will definitely keep updates on him. After you get one I will want more.LOL

I call the next one! keep us posted on the shipment and new home.

@pbauec I am curious now. What type of system do you run? Or will you be making one specifically for it? I have a dedicated refugium 30 gallons with a 6-inch DSB. I'm 98% sure that it cannot Escape that into my system. We'll find out. LOL

 

[pbauec]

It will be completely separate. I want zero cross contamination. Just to be sure.

 

[Wiz]

Yeah that is definitely a smarter way to go. But I don't have room for another big tank and I want to be sure he has enough room to grow.It will be nearly impossible for him to escape the refugium. If he does though he will end up in my sump. And it is almost impossible to escape that through the filter sponge media and the pump that brings it back up top. So the chances of him getting in my display are very very small. But even if he did it would be worth the trouble.

 

[Wiz]

I have some skeleton shrimp in shipping right now. Can't wait to get them in there. Such cool Critters. Man do I love this Hobby. I used to have skeleton shrimp and my old refugium. But they did not live through the transfer to the new one.

 

[Naiad]

I did nuke my tank (accident I swear!!) at least one eunice survived... I really don't think shipping will be any issue. I do think a dedicated tank would be cool but I am at my limit of tanks so I will be giving away any interesting thing to anyone who wants them

 

[Naiad]

Those are awesome! Where did you find some? I had some in a refugium years ago until copper got into the tank. Those and my mysis shrimp population never recovered.

 

[Wiz]

I certainly do not want to be greedy But I will take whatever nobody wants.

 

[Wiz]

I got the original ones in a pod order from floridapets. So I have been in talks with John who runs it And he let me know that he had some now so I ordered more pods and he said he would make sure I got some. :-D And his pods are really good too. Win-win for me

Awesome. I love all my little critters just as much as my fish

 

[Wiz]

So do you think you'll still have one in there or no?

[pbauec]

Those are cool looking shrimps.

Yea there is still a little eunice in there. Just haven't seen the big guy. Don't know if it died or is just not as brave anymore.

 

[Wiz]

I wanna start with two. So lemme know :-D

 

[Wiz]

Recently thought I was getting a foot and a half bobbit But it passed away while the person was at work. I keep coming so close. Just thought I would bump This Thread so everyone knows I'm still looking.

 

[pbauec]

Keep looking bro. I came close again too but he didn't make it.
