This guy eats appies! My reef got way out of control at one point and Joe's Juice wasn't cutting it. I added 4 of these guys and they seriously cleared it out in 2 weeks. Like they said, you have just got to get the right kind. If you compare the real appy eaters with the non appy eaters you can visualize the differences.



When they cleaned out the appies they turned into little thieves!

renee, does he eat polyps tooo???? that pic looks like he is claws deep in the palythoas????

Naw, he's stealing food.

I would keep an eye on that. I had one do that too to a favite of mine and ended up tearing the **** out of it. I think David Jones also lost some acan lords the same way. in my case they tore the favite apart getting at the food.

The paly's he can have.

I had a cleaner that I had to beat off with a rigid airline to keep from stealing food from my tubastrea. It was (somewhat) amusing to see all the different types of attempts he would make. I say somewhat because it took a lot of extra effort from me to feed the darn things.
