Turtle's Deep Blue Sea

What does he think of having an eel as a roommate?
I don't think he's seen Maui yet. Maui likes his caves so much, he stays in them. I see him at night when I shine a light on the tank.
 
I thought this was a pretty cool pic... that big hermit, his shell came from North Myrtle Beach when I was a kid. I think the little one killed a cerith snail and stole it's shell.

Oh you'll see him when he wants food.
We fed him a HUGE meal the day before we moved him. He's just been moved into a new tank also, so it may take a little while before he's ready to eat again. Eels can be finicky or go feeding frenzy...
 
Yea, so we just filled up our long frag rack. I had to cut the milli into frags because it had some RTN on the base. Hopefully this will stop it. Its the three frags on the bottom right, next to the green suharsonoi. The other SPS I have are the neon green birds nest(the super thin branch kind), the Bonsai, and the Blue Stylo. Eventually I'm going to get a frag of the Hyacinth Birds Nest from Aquarium Specialty. It's just like my neon green, but a reddish purple color with green polyps. Absolutely beautiful piece.

Those fiesty hermits give them and shell and they think they have kill and plunder a poor little snail.
 
Maui may kill those hermits. Are the dwarf eels pebbled toothed?
 
Dwarf eels are sharp toothed. They are fish eaters naturally, but very timid. I've never heard of anyone losing fish to one in captivity. I guess if you starved one, it would start hunting...
 
@saltyfilmfolks, almost forgot. Dane said they grow the purple nurple under medium light but it'll do ok in high light. It'll stay green like that then when it starts branching out it gets purple in it.
