Hi All,

Was having a good look at the tank earlier (I love this tank!) and noticed some red / white striped 'tentacles' protruding from a crevice in the LR. They were moving around in a 'controlled' state i.e. not with the water flow so I decided to investigate.

I had a good look throught the species database on UR and found it!!

Its an Ophiactid..... A Brittle Star!!!! Awesome

yeh cool, quite often you only see the legs poking out of the rock. as the tank matures you should notice more
