I do not know the name, but im sure a lot of people would buy that off you due to an overgrow of gsps. I think that is amazing how it looks and can blend in with the polyps.

I was going to say the same thing...if it's diet is only GSP I'm willing to bet a lot of people would buy them...

it was slinking around through the GSP and i thought that it was just inflated polyps... very sneaky. he was dumb enough to exit the foliage and i caught him naked on a rock.

i like it and would totally keep it if it wouldn't eat the GSP out of the show tank

PM if interested

That's just what I need to solve my GSP problem. Find another, breed them and make millions. I'd buy two when you do.

Have you verified that GSP is all that they eat? Try scraping a few off the rock and stick it in the specimen container with it.

i'm wondering if this thing has the ability to fertalize it's own eggs..... i know that in alot of cases they can carry both reproductive organs, but i've never known one to lay eggs before.
