Sea apple care???

[Theclutziestspazzofaninja]

Hello!:tongue:
I've become very interested in a sea apple after a saw one at my lfs and have been researching like crazy the past few days. I understand the risks of keeping of these creatures, so I'm really just lookimg for people with personal experience or any advice to keeping one of these beautiful creatures alive in the aquarium. If I were to purchase the apple it wouldn't be for about 3 weeks, so every bit of information you may have please do tell! :smile:

they can poison you're entire tank if it dies.....stay away from it
How about sharing you're tank specs....

Following a long as I hope someone can post some info or pics, or both! I would absolutely love to have one, but not going to risk it.

Thanks for the replies! If I do happy to get one I'll post as much as I can on it!
Alright so my tank:
-72 gal bowfront
-has a sump underneath (about 15 or so gallons)
-I'm currently using LED lighting (not sure of the exact amount at the moment, but I can find out if it's needed)
-I'm currently using a cobalt and two other powerheads that I'm unsure of the company (they came with the tank when I bought it)
-All equipment, skimmer, heater, ect are in the sump.
Anything else?

For live stock:
- Pair of ocellaris clowns
-3 pj cardinals
-algae blenny
-cherub pygmy angel
-RBTA anemone
-Huge longspine urchin
-(corals ATM) Frogspawn, trumpet, Favia brain, toadstool leather, and zoas.


Would you like me to give water params? I can if you all think it's needed :smile:

I had one for yrs then traded it. Upside is that they look awesome n when they feed its cool. Downside is u have prob 70 gallons of water in ur system so if it died it could do some real damage in there

Woud you mind telling what your experience was with keeping one?
-tank size?
-tank mates?
-reef or not?
-feeding?
-Any difficulties?
-And what made you decide to get rid of it?
It would really help me out a lot!
