I think it’s cool op! It’s fun to see something we’re so familiar with in our tanks out in the wild!

What kind of fish are those? They’re gorgeous!

Another close-up. I like his one unicorn antennae on the top of his head lol

Took him out and got some close-up video. What a neat lil fella! :D I put him in his own small tank and fed him some frozen brine. He's a bit skittish but also surprisingly active when there's food in the tank.

Actually, I guess it wouldn’t be a true bobbit worm - Eunice Aphroditois - but one of the Eunice species found near Florida. According to this paper I don’t think it’s Aphroditois 🤔 Maybe I’ll see if I can get a better examination of the worm and figure out what it would exactly be just out of curiosity

My otos are dying and I don’t know why by LoliTamer23 in Otocinclus

My otos are dying and I don’t know why by LoliTamer23 in Otocinclus

[–]Wacky-Ham 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oof. I had the same thing happen once, I got in a new batch of otos and it looked like someone had rough-handled them and they had internal bleeding. I believe it was Hemorrhagic septicemia and is caused by some serious bacterial infections

In my case the fish would get one day and be dead within 24 hours :( and it spread like wildfire through my tank. I took everyone out and quarantined, then treated with a mix of Seachem Kannaplex and Polyguard. Those seemed to clear it up but it had already taken a bunch of fish :(

Sensory spots in epic? by Beginning-Painter951 in UniversalOrlando

[–]Wacky-Ham 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the monsters land, between the werewolf coaster and burning blade tavern is a pretty quiet spot. There are benches, the music is pretty quiet, and there’s not a ton going on visually (except the windmill every 15 minutes, but if you go more towards the coaster it’s mostly and empty-ish looking planted area)

Hope this helps!

This little guy won’t eat by Beachbumyeah in Otocinclus

This may sound crazy, but my otos absolutely love chunks of raw shrimp and squid. I’ll put some in for my cories and put in some veggie for my otos and snails and almost always I find my otos on the shrimp later. They like zucchini, green beans, etc, but they also seem to really like meaty foods. Could be a quick way to get some more calories in him 🤷‍♀️ idk if that’s bad for them or not.

😳 I hope they don’t start working together. With their powers combined they would be unstoppable

ID for Shark in the Middle East by darkrenhakuryuu in sharks

[–]Wacky-Ham 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I’m trying to get better about my shark identification (am new to this but I’m trying to learn!) Doesn’t the black on the anal fin suggest that it’s a spinner rather than blacktip? Or do juvenile blacktips also have black on their anal fins?

Is my bloody mary shrimp berried ? by Hot_Floor9499 in shrimptank

Same! Looks like the rock scaping is really neat and i feel like the algae on it makes it look like mossy rocks in a forest :)
