Its because of the carbon dioxide levels in the house being higher than they are outside and having the house shut raises those levels. The higher...
Tell him what he's won Bob!
Looks like an Emerald crab, BUT.. that does not look like a baby crab on its leg. It really looks like a sea spider. Please tell me you dipped that...
Wrasse fish can be funny that way. They feed on pods a lot so it may have taken to eating those vs flake or whatever you feed. You may have problems...
Welcome! Very nice stand you have there. Looks like you are well on your way to becoming one of us junkies. ;)
Try not to take it wrong when folks say that you need more experience or something to that effect. What they are usually trying to say is that SPS...
I have never used that one, but I do use Cyclopeze and also picked up "Coral Frenzy" which I have heard good things about. Neither are liquid food,...

Could be a stomatella, but they do not move very fast. I would keep trying to identify it based on that alone. A picture would do wonders for an ID.
Do you ever see any "webbing" around it like a spiders web, especially after stirring the sandbed or scraping the glass? If so its a Vermitid snail....
Do you ever brush salt creep back into the tank? Looks similar to a salt burn.
Sounds like its working like it should to me. A fuge SHOULD look like an algae collection site if you have any algae, better than in the display....
