    bristle worms

    I used a baby food jar with a x cut in the top with some tuna in it..and they would crawl in at night to get the tuna and cant get out...use tuna in water only..not oil. And you have to open up the x alittle.

    Anemone for Clown FISH

    Carpet will sting what ever it touches...And usually even if it gets away it will die. And it will eat tangs....the longer it hasn't eaten the bigger the meal it can take...at lest this is how it is with mine.
