Looking in my sump this morning and saw two dime sized bangai cardinals! I knew they were breeding because I saw he male with a mouthful of eggs, but I don't think any were surviving. I thought my flame hawk was slurping them all up. They are hanging around my chaeto

Now that I'm actually looking I found 3 more cruising around in the live rock in my sump. Don't know how I'm gonna catch them. As soon as I peek in they take off into the rock

 

[cdrewferd]

You'll probably have to pull all the rock and algea and use a big net. Should get some trade in cash at the LFS. Free money is hard to beat. Hopefully they keep it up for you.

I was afraid of that. I have over 100# in my sump plus skimmers and reactors

How many were you able to get from the first clutch?

 

[aztecdreams]

It's hard to get a good count. They are hiding in a 200 gallon sump with lot of liverock, chaeto and reactors. I'm thinking 4 or 5. I just picked up a long spine urchin for them to hang out in

 

[hurrafreak]

Nice, you should make and MBI report

 

[aztecdreams]
