MBVette June 18, 2013 Share June 18, 2013 She wants it gone and I'm sure the tusk is hungry (it's always hungry). So supply and demand. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zygote2k June 18, 2013 Share June 18, 2013 It sounds like this pack is out for blood- kill it and ask the questions later or put it back into the acropora. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunWyrm June 18, 2013 Share June 18, 2013 So tiny! Just put it somewhere it can be happy... Or at the very least make a tusk happy lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huly June 18, 2013 Author Share June 18, 2013 This one is very tiny! It would not even be an app for your tusk lol. He is really cute but we are not risking our corals lol. I think I should give it to Jenn's kids. They can have a mini crab tank LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
