The ditritivors will nuke your tank when they die.
The filter feeders are still toxic when they die, but not as bad.

from my understanding, if they feel stressed or threatened as well as when they die, they let out a toxin that will nuke ur tank.
the coloring is almost the same but the physical aspects of the body are different. this guy looks like corn on the cob lol.he has big bubbles
That thing looks like a turd. A living turd.
No offense. But seriously.
They are big bad juju when they die. So be careful, keep an eye on the bugger.
