Starting things off with a week of shots of our classroom costumed crab whose favorite holiday is obviously Halloween. (Not particularly proud of the cyanowear.) He has also worn a shroom, rubber band stolen from frag mount, green nephthea, shrimp molt, small random flow generator, cabbage coral, and a feather duster worm who was not amused.

Our pincushion urchin decided to dress up as Mickey mouse.

Is that massive conch moving corals around constantly?

Is that massive conch moving corals around constantly?

My conches, yes they get under the rack and would push frags out. This tiger tail slug, no. He's a sifter and scavenger and he worked magic when I had a sand bed. Still working on his new abode.

Oh wow, somehow I completely missed the giant slug and was talking about the conch on the rack. @RandyC had a neat trick of putting rubber bands on the bottom of the plugs so that they could not unintentionally be pushed up by inverts. Worth doing for anything valuable that you don't want knocked over.

Forgot I had this picture. Seems fitting for Halloween.
I see your Mickey Mouse @IOnceWasLegend and Yuma hats @Darkxerox and raise you an entire dead Emerald Crab.

Slug? Tiger tail cucumber (Holothuria sp.)
