"Why are you touching my stuff?"
EDIT: Yes, those are colonial tubeworms in the foreground... SG is 1.016, so I figured I'd try them.

Hi Synirr

It looks like he is doing well. I remember when you first got him and you posted his picture on the brackish forum. Has he got his own tank or has he got any tank mates? I would love one but I already got a toadfish and I don't think you can mix them.

He has his own tank, just a 5.5 gallon... he has grown, but not enough to merit an upgrade yet. He does have 3 tiny zebra hermit tankmates that are doing great :)
 
Very nice, I must have had 7 of them in the past, but I never had them live for more than a few weeks, they'd eat a few times, and just stop.
 
Yeah, I hear a lot of people have trouble getting them to eat, I guess I got lucky. Mine takes anything frozen or live that I offer, but his faves are live blackworms and frozen bloodworm :)
 
So cute!

His hiney looks like he's related to synos? Oops! I guess it is just his fins and a trick of light.

Anyway, he is a real sweety. :)
 
Wonderful pictures Synirr. So long as you salinity stays on the high end, it may be a worth while investment to seed the tank with amphipods. Amphipods make great snacks for them to hunt down in between feedings.
 
boy, he is just cute as a button! what's the minimum tank size for one of these again? (i keep being tempted by the cuteness)

The minimum tank size is not really established, some say a 10 gallon is minimum others say 25. Wapfish will grow to about 2.5 inches and are fairly active, IMHO 15 gallons is sufficient.
