My Clarki does this also. maybe a warning? Oh yea he/she bites too!

Check out the CLOWNFISH & ANEMONES forum. Lots of good info about feeding!

the natural way= certain fish like a yellow mandarin or wrasse. a blue velvet nudi. a product called FLATWORM EXIT. do a search.

they can become an eyesore if they get out of hand and can block light to corals, so I would say definately not good. I have them in my tank but keep them in check with a sixline wrasse.

red flat worms.

also the moonlights are mostly for looks. I like them.

If you can afford that lighting go for it! you'll be glad you did. 10K will be whiter (brighter to the eye), 20K will look bluer. I prefer the 10K myself. -sawsman

Expensive power bill...... Why would you want to?

Some will say his products will foul your water. In my opinion any product if added too much will foul your water. I personally use Marc Weiss' REEF DNA VITALS and have seen no ill effects in my tank. I have if anything noticed increased color to the coraline algae and have noticed an overall...

Do you have lots of LR for them pods?

How often do you do water changes? Do a 25% water change. mix replacement water to a specific gravity of 1.025-1.026. Your replacement water is testing fine for alk & calc. Test 24hrs after making water change and see what readings you get. You might want to then try the B-ionic two part buffer...

This clown rules the tank! She is the oldest inhabitant of my tank and so she thinks she's the queen, I'll just let her believe that but if she bites me again she'll be part of my tackle when I go salmon fishing in Alaska this coming spring! HA HA that'll teach her. -sawsman

My Royal Gramma did the same thing at first but eventually got brave, came out and has now established his territory. very cool fish! brightly colored and very unique. -sawsman

Pseudo's are a little agressive towards other fish like grammas (same general shape) and certain gobies, but yes should be ok with a sixline.

Just a thought... but have you thought of another test kit just to make sure of your levels? you could then compare readings. Its not like you would be out anything as you can always need test kits anyway. How about testing your replacement water before making water changes? Are your levels...

Good for now....but for how long? It may look this way for awhile but it will die a slow death unless lighting and water quality is improved.

No problem Jzuse- I am certainly not an expert and have learned by trial and error, some costly mistakes I might add. we're all here to learn. Get the best lighting you can afford and always research any specimens before buying. dont always believe what a LFS might tell you- get a second...

It probably kept moving in search of a brighter area. New bulbs wont help you need more intensity, more total watts per gal and I dont think you would need a chiller with the upgraded system. It appears that their just after your money. They should not have told you this anemone would be ok...
