Sea slug?!

[elfda]

He looks fat and healthy.

...it is nice to know I can make sea slugs super happy, as a little feather in my cap, though.

 

[elfda]

New mystery slug?!
Coworker just sent me this photo

This one looks greenish... could it be a good guy, eating algae? (She asks hopefully)

 

[Lionfish Lair]

I would need to see the other side.

Thankfully I just got to work, so more photos are incoming!

 

[Joshua Hurst]

Helpful squishy friend, then?

AHGAHGHAG YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[elfda]

What manner of beast are you?!
It's like worm... with a single horn?
Marine tomato hornworm? [emoji23]

It is *not* graceful in its movements (gonna see if I can upload a video)

 

[Lionfish Lair]

I am absolutely stumped.

 

[elfda]

Is it a sea cucumber?

 

[Lionfish Lair]

It looks to be a bristleworm. It has a segmented body and bristles.

Right? But then unicorn horn and green and wat.

 

[bios]

Very difficult to say
Some characteristic as trow out the intestines (guts)from is body to disorientate enemy (the unicorn) are only of them sea cucumber
Other way when is not molested you have to see a pair number of plumes from is mouth
But as Renee says very difficult to identify from pics

I'm on an iPad, so I hope this shows up correctly, but I'm pretty sure that lighter white stripe down the center are the digestive organs of a polychaete.

Here's the video i took

 

[Lionfish Lair]

That's a worm.

 

[elfda]

Omg we might have figured it out.
A manager was getting out our feather duster worm to sell, last night, and it came out of its tube... and while scrubbing that tank, I saw its nekkid body.

So... butt-end of a feather duster worm?

 

[Lionfish Lair]

That sounds like a match!

 

[Shaddow_wolf169]

I found out what they're eating.
And I figured out why my GSPs were suddenly so miserable.

Manager is gonna try to order some coral dip. =_=

We found the cure for gsp over growth

I did have that thought, lol

 

[elfda]

I figured out where they're coming from! ORA.

I ordered two more green leather corals, and found 3 nudis on my GSPs! [emoji34]
And the leathers each have bites in them.

Nudis have been removed. [emoji35]
And killed.

 

[Lionfish Lair]

What kind of nudis are we talking about? I think I missed that part.
