Hey just was wondering if any one had sea squirts?where would i place one top or bottom  ..what kind of light do they require..and anything else you think i need to know,food ect thanks ;D ;D

I had some black coated ones but could not keep them going. I do have non ornamental ones that look much like small sponges hiding under rocks and such although I'm sure most of us do.

They don't use light. (almost all don't)
They feed on specific sized bacteria or micro plankton (hard to keep fed)

I used to have them all over the place, they just started popping up everywhere. They seemed to like all lower light, and low in the aquarium. Most were under coral, bottom of rocks etc etc ..

I've had some reddish squirts through up from under a zoa colony.  They are still thriving, under T5HO lighting and high current.
