Re: Lettuce sea slug - breeding success

Note added 30 May 2006: This is most probably Elysia clarki, a new species which was previously considered a colour form of E. crispata

Concerning Rick's success with Elysia crispata in his aquarium. Apparently not all emerald crabs do ignore them. I came home with two an hour and a half ago, and I now have about two thirds of one, and that because I managed to pry it away from my crab.

Bad Luck Vincent,
I don't have much experience with keeping aquaria, but one thing I discovered - and surely not for the first time - is that crustacea and octopus can't be trusted
