I was told that a coco worm would live in a 24 gal tank ... apparently they cant ... you can not supply them enough food to sustain them... they live in the lagoons where the nutrient is high so you buy them and they look great for about a month ... then they loose a crown... and build a smaller one to keep from starving ... then they loose that one and die...
don't belive it if they say you can just feed them more .... you will nuke your tank by the time its over
Don't believe everything you read on the forums either just a bunch of 50 years old going thru a midlife crisis..:wacko:

I was told this by almost every fish store I went to that was selling them ... too many to name... but all the ones we all go to told me this at one point ( too many to name)
luckily my friend Kyle at premium aquatics told me the real deal if the lfs told you the truth the cant sell em
hi guys I had a verry thought provoking conversation on my last thread about lfs and eythics... so I decided to beat them at their own game.... they wont tell us every thing... so in this thread post info that may help another reefer contemplating buing live stock ... that a lfs may lie about ... use your own experience..... jump in this will be fun.... WHEW HOOOO!
feel free to disagree and debate, that's what the forum is for ... but at the end we all play nice and no but hurty feelings
I suppose you can say the store that told you the misinformation... and or person ... time to let it out ... after all it was your money wasted ...
I'LL START THIS OFF
I have tons of em
CUC? Oh, you need 20 hermits, and at least 10 astrea's for your 6 gallon fluval edge....
