Hey all, i need some help...again! I just purchased some LR from my LFS and it came with some "creatures" im not too sure what they are. Maybe some of your expertise can help me. I attached the photos on here, so i hope this works. If not, ill have to find another way to show u the pics.
Pic #1) I think it is a brittle starfish, but im not sure. If it is, will it grow to be any bigger b/c i have about 20 that came in/on the rock Pic #2) Possibly some sort of starfish? I have 2 so far, one with all its arms and one with 3 full arms and what looks like 3 or 4 stubs. Their color is kinda greyish brown with redish marks on it Pic #3) Have no clue about this one, except that it has a clearish white bubble like bottom and it moves very slowly Pic #4) theres quite a few of these things, they have the same clearish white bubble like bottom and they move very slowly, they are also a neon green color when the actinics or moon lights are on. i have tons of these on the rocks Pic #5) this might be another type of starfish, its white unlike the ones in pic #2, with a redish pink dot in the center of it. All these hitchhikers are very small...mostly a little bit bigger than the size of a pencil eraser. Please help if you can!! Im curious to know if any of these things will cause problems for me in the future. Thanks, BLONDIE! |

Okay, so the 4th pic isnt the best in the world, but the blur of color is the live rock that the brown things are on. anyway, there are 4 other pics of things that im not 100% sure what they are. I still need some help with identifying those.

Not that I'm going to be of any help to you but I can only see one
picture which looks to be of live rock with two olive green spots on it. There are no other pics. blondie wrote: Okay, so the 4th pic isnt the best in the world, but the blur of color is the live rock that the brown things are on. anyway, there are 4 other pics of things that im not 100% sure what they are.

George Patterson Coffee is only a way of stealing time that should by rights belong to your slightly older self. |
thats strange because i can see all 5 pics (all seperate attachments) and when i had someone go on and check from a different computer, they saw all 5 pics too. i wonder why? hmmm...ill have to see if i can figure out y they arent showing, or how i can get a link to show them another way.
thanks for clearing up that there was only 1 pics. BLONDIE Quote:

Hi Blondie,
The problem with your links not showing up appears to have to do with the way you read and post to this newsgroup. Since RAMR is a Usenet Newsgroup, most people access it through some sort of news server. Apparently you're reading and posting via a web based mirror service and that fact is somehow causing your links to not show up for most of us. [Note that the link that DID show up was the last of the group that you included.] I'm posting a link to your post as it showed up on fishkeepingbanter.com : http://www.fishkeepingbanter.com/showthread.php?t=26717 Hopefully those people who so wish can access your links this way. Interfacelessly yours, Alex |

How do they do that - get our newsgroup to appear in a forum? It's sort
of odd to know that what you write appears in places other than where you think it does. I've discovered the same thing with alt.comp.freeware Tidepool Geek wrote: Hi Blondie, The problem with your links not showing up appears to have to do with the way you read and post to this newsgroup.
