Squishie89 April 21, 2014 Share April 21, 2014 A stomatella. It looks like she dropped her tail, they do this to try and distract the predator while they run off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st9z April 21, 2014 Author Share April 21, 2014 Oh makes prefect sense! I found the stomatella and took it out of the tank. Then when I looked down in the cup the other thing appeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion April 21, 2014 Share April 21, 2014 Stomatella it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st9z April 21, 2014 Author Share April 21, 2014 Thank you for the help! I already placed the stomatella back in the tank. Should I put the tail in or will it re-grow it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squishie89 April 21, 2014 Share April 21, 2014 (edited) Tail is useless at this point. If you have any large LPS corals you can feed it to them. She will regrow the tail in time. Edited April 21, 2014 by Squishie89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
