Re: Got a Sally Lightfoot

as much as I read I didnt know much about them, I drove a long distance with intentions of getting rid of hair algae and eating at the Taco Bell right next to the LFS. I got both done =) I will give it a week and if it isn't getting rid of the HA I will try to get it out. If it does get rid of the HA I will also try to get it out.

Remember, just cuz it happened to you doesn't mean it will happen to everyone. It's like dwarf angels. Some eat corals, some don't.

haven't seen the crab in the last two days. Dunno if it died or just is in hiding.
