TigerTail Sea Cucumber splitting???

[Kevin McG]

Is this a good sign of a thriving cucumber? just noticed I now have 2 huge ones now

I dunno, Kevin - with this occurrence happening so soon after the anemone's splitting, I would check your parameters.
Could be a sign something's not right..
I had been a believer that anemones splitting were not necessarily a sign something was wrong with the water, but when that happened to your anemones so close to this, I'm thinking there may be something amiss.

Keep an eye on it Kevin.They are big bags of ammonia when they die.

It's a normal form of asexual reproduction, splitting themselves into two. I wouldn't worry about it, especially if they are looking like they should.

That's good to know.I got the TBS pkg yrs ago and was nuked by 3-4 of them so I'm paraniod of 'em.

My tigertail died in my dino outbreak, but I didn't have an ammonia spike from it. They can be pretty toxic, though. I wonder if the brown ones are more toxic when they die than the tiger tails?

I was talking to B at the AG and he said that the TT cucumbers are the less toxic of all the cucumbers.

I also been reading that splitting is common
