Very cool. The mystery of how it got there is equally intriguing. Did you add live sand? What dip are you using?

it sure is as i use Coral RX and most i cut away fragg stones and all rock is carib sea and real reef rock dry
caribsea live sand but its bacteria in sand not live critters as its a big one so it must find sponges to live on as faar as i now they eat specific sponges
many thanks for comets but how i get it its a mystery for me

You may want to consider using a Bayer dip as it does a better job on incoming critters, and then dip also with Coral RX which really is more of an antiseptic. I had a couple of critters sneak in on my latest setup too. The only way could have been in the small bag of Caribsea live sand I used or in my chaeto which I did not dip. Now I dip all corals, chaeto with Bayer and then Coral RX. Haven't seen a new hitchhiker since the dips.
