    Hey all you daydreamers:

    I thought I would share something intresting with you.
    I got this intresting fellow on a Gorgonia a while back. If you look close you can see that he has snipped off chunks of my starpolyp tissue and is holding it in his front pinchers. I have read of a crab holdong tiny anenome in each pincher but never starpolyp flesh. Mabey if I give him some superglue he will start making frags..lol
