Strange black sea slug or nudibranch? Can't tell if this is a good hitchhiker or a bad one. Hanging out on the hammer this evening. It must have come in on a small torch coral, but survived a dip. Any ideas? Keep or jettison?

It hitchhiked in on my green polyp coral and I am not sure if I should remove it or if it is a good thing. Let me know if you can.

Any idea what this slug like thing is that hitchiked in on my green polyp coral?

Hey guys. Ive always been intrigued by nudibranchs and i would really love to keep one in my tank. People keep saying everywhere that they are "impossible to keep" but i beg to differ. I think keeping one in a aquarium is possible. I've been researching ones for sale and different species and im...

Hey Im new to the forum, just recently started keeping a salt water aquarium. I got some soft coral today and i found this slug on it, thought it was just part of the coral when I put it in my tank but it started moving and looking more like a slug. My question is can anyone help identify it and...

I really like the looks of these but cannot find much on them. Are they reef safe? I think I have enough algae to last a little while, but could I just use algae sheets once I run out? How big do they get.:confused:

I have a 12 gallon nano cube and I have so much hair algae growing in my tank. I do weekly 2 gallon water changes, so all my parameters are good. Nitrates and nitrites are normal, pH is normal, temperature is about 75 degrees. I leave my light on for four hours a day. In my tank right now...

I plan to grow up some algae and aptasia, and then introduce some sea slugs for a small inert-fun tank. Does this sound doable? Thanks, --Avery

Hey everybody, woke up this mornign to find this crawling on the front of my tank. It's small (1-2 mm), white, and looks kinda like a 3-legged sea star. It's very slow. Anybody know what it is?

I just found this little guy cruising around inside my tank. He's only like an inch or two long. It looks like a baby sea hare? He moves like a sea hare, and has little ears like a sea hare. If it is, what do I feed him?

Hey all. Just thinking about picking up a lettuce sea slug for some quick hair algae/bryopsis help. The bryopsis I can deal with, pretty easy to pull out. But the hair algae is killing me. Especially on the hard to reach LR. Never had a problem till a recent coral brought some into the tank and...

I asked you guys to try to help my identify this "coral" which definetely is not a coral, but a sea slug. Everyone had great input, thanks guys! Sorry I could not get a good pic. It was hanging on a live rock all day yesterday, and last night it moved back to pipe organ which I originally saw...
