15g Coldwater

Im not sure if I want to know what that is...

Haha I don't even know...

Hah get your head out of the gutter. Most likely a sensory organ for detecting this in the water, e.g. a proboscis of some sort. .

Yea thats what I thought too, it is just weird because I have never seen it before.

And what did you think we were talking about???

lol . I will admit it resembles it was a tentacle for giving packs of sperm to the female for fertilization as many invertebrates do.

Yeah i have seen sensory organs on many larger cone shaped snails.

This is really random but isopods scare the crap out of me . I saw a picture of someone who had one in an Alaska tank and I sware im gonna have dreams about one climbing out of my water, crawling slowly on the floor and then like attacking my leg or something, but then ill try to run out of my room but the door will be locked.

Well combine it with the little spider pests, Humans consume an average of 78 spiders in there sleep during the course of there lives. Bad for me, Im arachnophobic

Ohh i think we have an isopod thread in our inverts category somewhere. They creep me out .

I think they are neat, and they can grip onto anything!

Like your face . Then they can inject their spawn into your stomach .

If only right?

Oh you didnt know? They really can. Didnt you hear about that woman in the outer banks that got bit by one at one of the fake reefs and had 12 hybrid babies?

Sounds like a movie plot to me. I claim copyrights.

Hahahaha. No, he's being serious. :|.

Yea dude I really am. Its scarier for me because the outer banks is of course in my state!

Some new pics

Love the macros man.

Thanks!

wow. That's pretty sweet!

Gracias!

thats awesome. It must be nice to live so close to that stuff, it is really agravating what I have to go through to get livestock. I only get to go to the beach like twice each year. Nice macro too, the nems are nice colored.

Thanks! Yea well I only go there twice a year too so I know how it is. It is still a 5 hour drive and a 1 hour ferry ride to get there haha.

Well a little update, the microfauna are really starting to make themselves known. I am seeing pods on the glass and these millipede looking worms crawling around. They are big usually over an inch long. Pretty interesting.

thats awesome. My tank is finally about done cycling. Its been three months. Although now I am battling brown algae.
