grassi Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Alex' date=' do you have enough for 25?[/quote'] Yes, if everything goes in the right way I should have a good amount. So far 50 are reserved. Plus a few that I'm gonna give back to who donated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnsmb Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I could use a few for my 40 gallon. Maybe 3-6. Getting to Portland would take some work for me though. Anyone able to help transport to the north? I got a peppermint shrimp about a month ago, and I never see the darn thing, but the aiptasia is dwindling.....

fpd4308 Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Hey alex, I donated a couple to the cause but I would like to pick up about 15 when they are ready. Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwheeler Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 johnsmb, I might be heading down to Portland in the next week or two depending on when the group buy frags and the grow out frag is ready for me if you still need them then just let me know and make the arrangements for them to be picked up and I should be able to do it. You would just need to make it to my house to get them then and I am just outside Longview on Eufaula Hights if you know where that is. Or I might be able to bring them to you so I could see a new tank lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.R Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I hope everyone's Berghias are doing well. Beth actually found one of the little guys and they are starting to munch away at the aiptasia!(clap) They are actually lovely little creatures! munch away little nudibranchs! Keep my aiptasia at bay! Well I woke up this morning and saw one of these on my glass or something that looks really similar. Too bad I dont have any aptasia, the little guy is going to starve. I wish I could get a good picture of it but he's at a bad angle. I was think of just pulling him out just incase... :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 Make sure he's the aiptasia eating nudibranch J.R as there are other nudibranchs that are not so nice in your tank! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes google helps but honestly for me when they are that tiny I think it is very difficult to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.R Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Yeah I tried google first thing this morning and theres alot of the little guys that kinda look the same but have different diets. Guess it's time to get my hands wet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be a similar nudi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grassi Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 What's happening with the babies Grassi? You think they will be ready in another week? I still see something moving. Then there are some on the glass, visible with a magnifier. I'm trying to find some pics of the stages to identify where I'm at. I lost all but 2 of the broodstock. I still have eggs, not a lot at this time. I really hope something will show up soon. I talked with a guy and he told me he saw the nudis the morning he was gonna tore down the tank, so there is hope. If not, I will try again. I will say to wait a couple of weeks from now and then go for another order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 Still on the wait list for Jeremy again so it could be a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
