I'm curious about their burrowing habit. Have you heard of them burrowing in aquaria? Perhaps if you found a good 1 inch crocea or maxima and had a crevice in a rock just the right size, would it enlarge the crevice as it grew? Their normal appearance in the wild is so unique, it almost feels wrong to keep them out and exposed in aquaria, just for aesthetics.
To date, I've never heard of one (at any size) doing any burrowing while in an aquarium. It seems that they have to start when they are much smaller than the sizes they are offered to aquarists, or they won't do it at all. No clue why...
I ordered the book from Amazon, still watching the videos , you are so perfect at teaching this subject, thank you
Very cool! That tiny crocea was cool, especially compared against the small barnacles near it.
This really helped me, I see a lot of these here in the Philippines 🇵🇭
