Finally got 'em!

After 2 lost damsels and I would guess 6'ish turbo's, He's finally out of the DT. I had to physically move the rock he was living in, and when I tipped that rock over, 4 empty snail shells fell out.. Amazing...

Definitely a gorilla.

My wife compares him to a mass murderer, and want to give him the electric toilet. But, I dunno, he is *kinda* cool looking. He's living in fuge at the moment until the trial..

He is really cool looking. Toss him in a 2.5g or a 5g or something and see how big you can get him to grow.

Awwww.... He's fluffy and adorable! Like a kitty that eats your favorite houseplant, then vomits it up all over your second favorite houseplant, killing that one as well but in an adorable way.

Spoken like a true cat owner...I'm sure that if mine had thumbs and a box of matches, they would torch the house to the ground.

i know we kind of get ****ed when something is eating our coral or something, but you really shouldn't kill something for just doing his thing. I think you should keep him in the sump!

Yeah just keep him in the fuge or sump. Don't forget to feed him something meaty occasionally.
