I added the Black Sea Squirt to my marine tank and it settled quickly on the rock shelf. It looks natural and seems to be filtering the water well. No issues after a week of observation.

It arrived healthy and attached itself to the coral base within a few days. I noticed it moving slightly but didn’t see any signs of stress. Good for a beginner marine setup.

The organism is active and visible in the tank. It doesn’t cause any disturbances and helps maintain water clarity. Easy to spot and maintain.
