Something eating my GSP

nvladik · 04/30/2016, 05:53 AM

Hey guys. Need some help here. Not sure what is, didn't catch anyone in the act yet, but something is eating my GSP. The affected area is getting bigger and bigger every night. There's some green substance that oozed when I touched it. Doing my best to capture a pic, but hard to show the green substance.

I had found a small crab eating my GSP one night. I have only seen the crab twice in about a year but I know he was there eating it. maybe you have one that's really good at hiding like mine.

I've been trying, checked at night a few times with a flash light, nothing yet.

Well I check almost nightly and still have only seen the crab twice

That's awesome! Thank the little guy! I keep my gsp off my rock because it will spread like fire!

I agree with gallegos, at least you have someone keeping it in check. It can get out of hand fast...especially if your water quality is good. Although it is nice looking if it's isolated to its own rock island.
