   Last month my Tiger Cuc looked as if something tore its insides out.  It was shrunken up and I was ready to dispose of it....  Well before I did, I thought that I would do some research and what I found amazed me.  If one of these animals feels threated, it has the ability to eject its insides.  Apparantly they are lethal to crabs and other organisms.  I removed it from my frag tank and placed it in my sump where it would not be bothered.  It took about 6 weeks but it healed and finally is eating again.  This hobby is amazing.  These creatures are very resilient!  What I learned from this experience is things that appear dead or near death may not always be so...
