    I know many are too hard to keep, but are there any that are easier to maintain and keep alive in a 75 gallon? I almost wish that i had some of the cool ones hitchhike in....

    I have some hitchhiker sea squirts. They are really neat!! I've heard they are hard to keep alive in home aquariums, but I've had mine about 9 months. They are probably a hardier type.

    I had a bright red one that came in on a euphyllia skeleton. It stayed around for 8 months or so. They're cool as freebees..but I don't think I'd pay for one.
