Thanks for the input! If I get REALLY brave, I'll do it. They've crawled down to the dark, dark, filthy water but I'll try to get them with a net. As far as a photo goes, they just look like 2" shells with long legs. I don't know how to post a photo on here but if someone wants to enlighten me I'll be happy to give it a try.

What about the live rock it's on? It's really dirty but I'm sure there's life on there. I would llike to keep as much of it in tact as possible, but it's so slimy and gross!

take the shells from the rock, carefully. put them in a baggy with water that came from where ever you got the rock. let them float for 30min then drop them in your new tank. do not add the water from the bag, that can contaminate your tank.

I'll give it a try, but they're big and gross. What about the live rock they're attached to. It's really dirty but there's lots of live on it. Thanks!

I just picked up a piece of live rock that has two large snails (maybe they're crabs) attached to it. I am just starting my tank and have one smaller crab and that's it other than some live rock. I purchased a piece of live rock that is really yucky-looking but it has two large "thingies" attached to it in large shells. Am I better off leaving them in the filthy water the rock came in? How do I go about introducing them to my clean tank from the grossly filthy pail the live rock is in? Do I need to clean anything first?

Yes....I'm a newbie and any help would be appreciated.

Well, school is out and I am planning on traveling this summer, so my tank is coming down. I have had the live rock for almost 5 years, and some of the corals too. Its a 28gal bio cube with the 150watt sunpod, tunze 9002, jbj top off. It can do about anything you want to keep coral wise. I am going to start off selling the livestock, then the rock and fish, then the equipment. I will be getting pictures up today. Lots of freebies, and deals to people who buy a lot of stuff. First come first serve, but I will hold if you are on the way over.

How about Live Rock or an inexpensive 1st saltwater fish to help break in tank?

I got about a 100 pounds of live rock for $2.50/lb, I also have a frogspawn with 4 clusters for $60.

Call or text with any questions!

I am needing some live rock for my new nano cube. Please call 512 989-0120. Thanks!

I am fishface and very new to this forum. I need some live rock for my new/used 24 gallon nano cube and would also like to hear if my fellow saltwater enthusiasts think I need to add a protein skimmer to my set up. It's just been up for a week now and I've added a small crab until the tank settles in. I also have 2 fresh water tanks that I really enjoy. Is there a place to put a classified ad about items I am looking for or want to sell? I can't find the info anywhere and would appreciate any info anyone can provide. Thanks!
