    Default Things that eat the tips off Acro's????

    I swear I'm seeing some good size Acro's I recently got missing some tips (not a big part of the branch, just seems like the very end).

    Does anyone know of critters (fish or otherwise) that nip the tips off Acro's?

    Would it be the blue leg or red leg hermits, or possibly the emeralds?

    Not the hermits. Like these...

    Take a look in your tank at night with a flashlight. You probably find one or more.

    I want a gorilla crab. Just a small tank with my "gorilla crab". i mean how cool would it be to tell your friends?

    Are they actually being snipped off or are your SPS the type that grow calcium deposits on the end at night and then cover it with new flesh the next day?

    Well, I'm not really sure. Guess I need to try to get some pictures taken and posted.
