    Found this under a piece of LR attacking one of my corals. I can't seem to find it in any of my books. Any ideas?

    Typically a breakfast beer, I can't recall the latin name but I think its related to Milwaukee's Beast. Seems innocuous at first but usually found in packs of 12 and can be invasive- watch for mullet growth and IROC Z's blasting Skynrd. ;p

    I had a severe infestation in my fridge but a few friends helped clear them out.

    Often times cryptic in nature and will not be seen till the weekend or at night after your main lights go off on your tank!
    Not considered totally reef safe as it seems that the more you have of them, the greater the chances of human error become...
    Their are many different species of this, hailing from all over the world(ie. United States, Italy, Japan, Canada, UK, Ireland and Australia)! I would be careful when planning on trying to mix these species as they may not get along with you!
    Price is a major factor as well in the decision to purchase many of these species!
    Be careful and drive slow
    Research and be conscientious-ENJOY
