Sea cucumber split!

[AlanM]

I now have two tiger tail sea cucumbers.  It must have split at some point because now I have two smaller ones.  Totally weird.  Somehow I had never heard of that.  These are the biggest things to reproduce in my tank and now it looks like my Banggais are getting ready to have a go at it too. 

 

Anyone trying to have babies?  I'll trade you some of my tank water...

Not too turdy. They are tiger tail one, so orange with white spines.

Sell one! Are they hard to keep? Never had one

[AlanM]

Now i have three of them. One split again. Too weird. Going to have to get rid of one or two.

 

They are easy to keep as far as I can tell. They do a good job of processing sand, but do undermine the rocks from time to time and will move stuff around,

Ill take some, but they just look like red spiny noodles in the rocks and sand. Tiger tail cukes. The only reason i know they split is that I can see them in three different isolated spots, heh.
