+ACampbell Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Do they need to be feed? I've got one in my pico at work. The tank is full of zoos, gsp, xenia, rics, blastos, trumpet, leather, shrooms, and even a few mini carpets. Its my understanding that they can just live off of tissues from the coral? Can anyone cofirm this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GKarshens Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 According to this they can be fed flake food. http://liveaquaria.com/product/prod_displa...pcatid=1135&N=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apedroza Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 Hey Andrew how about a full tank shot?? I have 2 sexy's at work and everybody love them. I feed about twice a week, but I always see them scavenging around the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crab Rangoon Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 Mine were always most active at night, as if they were nocturnal. They basically did the opposite of my clownfish; taking host to a specific organism all day long and practically never leaving it, and then roaming the tank freely at night. I had 4-6 at all times, and it was very cool to see them wander around in the moonlights as a gang. They never seemingly fed during the day when I fed, nor did they try to rob any of my LPS when I fed them at night, so I assume they are adequate scavengers. We get em in on a special-order-only basis, as we dont have anything small enough to accommodate them in the store without losing track of them, or risking them getting eaten.

iflytoohigh Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 i'd like to get 2 sexy shrimp for my 3gal. would that be ok ? also. where to get em? should i just submit a special order at aquatek or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ACampbell Posted October 22, 2006 Author Share Posted October 22, 2006 They would go great in your pico. Aquatek is the only place I've seen them consistently stocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedude Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Yeah most of the tiny animals like the sexy shrimp need to be special ordered. If most of the stores kept them stocked regularly, they'd lose them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmanning Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Steve, from Horizon Pets, can order them......my husband and I have 7 of them in 2 different nano tanks. Nice little additions to the nanos' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
