This stunning Sea Hare is an Algae munching MACHINE! Sometimes creatures like this are so voracious it’s a good idea to cycle them around to multiple setups to ensure they don’t starve. Please remember you can always ask to rehome your healthy sea life with us if you can’t provide it with the ideal environment anymore #seahare #Aplysia #greenhairalgae #rehome #tradein #responsibleownership #SupportYourLFS #50percentoff #brisbaneaquarium #dragonsflame
These purple tentacle green glitter Goni remind us of those giant Whacky Arm Inflatable Man balloons!

Loving working on this fun Micro Reef project! After 3 weeks of cycling, adding live Rotifers and Copepods we are ready for some snails so we went on a hunt through The Prop Room for the smallest specimens we could find - stomatella, Scutus and Nassarius. Turbo snails came from the Super Simple Softie Setup. The store also just had some baby Trochus delivered which rounded off the radula diversity just perfectly!

Biscuit Starfish - Goniodiscaster scaber - are so attractive that they are a popular invertebrate choice for reef tanks. They eat ascidians, sponges, algae and bryozoans so fare better in an established reef tank containing a range of these food options. They are somewhat challenging because not only are they sensitive to pH fluctuations (like many other starfish) but they do not handle warm temperatures well. While reef tanks are typically fine to be kept 24-26C and can withstand the odd spike above, these starfish will definitely struggle when temperatures escalate. Chillers are a necessity to keep these thriving long term, in QLD especially. #biscuitstar #starfish #goniodiscaster
Decorator crabs are the COOLEST critters at camouflage! They adorn themselves with whatever dominant species they are surrounded by. These two must have been collected amongst a diverse range of sponges! Popular choices for them are softies like zoanthids, clavularia and GSP. They are typically scavengers / detritivores, so considered reef safe in appropriate reef environment. They are unable to frag SPS but it would be nice to offer them a bit of excess soft polyps to fulfil their goal of looking discreet! #decoratorcrab #reeftank #reefinghobby #crab #marinebiology #sponge #cantseeme #camouflage #camocrab

Not your typical day at work! We were absolutely gobsmacked to catch this Torch Coral spawning in store the other day.
