    Another thought would be the current. Don't torches like moderate current only? :thinking: Bruce

    Yea, mine moved to the back of the tank also. I just repositioned a power head to get him to move back to the front. Bruce

    Got my first anemone

    The larger clown is still not interested in the anemone while the smaller one is having a ball. Is it one per clown fish? Thanks, Bruce

    Got my first anemone

    Thanks for all the info folks...Good stuff. It has been 3 weeks and the bta seems to be fine. The color has not changed much and every time I tried to put him higher on the rockwork, he moved himself down to the same level he was before. I guess this means my lighting is adequate for the...

    To capture a camelback

    Anyone know of a good way to capture a camelback shrimp besides ripping the rock work apart? I want to bring him back to the lfs so I can start putting in some soft corals. :thinking: Thanks, Bruce

    Got my first anemone

    Do I need help here? Or is this normal behavior? An hour ago the BTA was all happy in full bloom and now it is all tucked up under the rock. Anyone know why? renogaw, Already have the picture taped to the glass but the clown fish stay away from the picture...go figure!

    Got my first anemone

    I have a question regarding the feeding. I read somewhere that if you feed anemones more frequent, they tend to split more. Is this correct? Thanks, Bruce

    Got my first anemone

    Thanks marinebgnr. It's a 45 gallon with 192 watt power compact from coralife. The BTA looked more neon green at the lfs and it might be the lighting that is casting a white hue. Also, it is time for me to change the bulbs again. They are on order and might make a difference. Now if I...

    Got my first anemone

    Hi everyone It's been a while since my last post and I just wanted to share my pics of the bubble tip I picked up yesterday. The tank is 2 years old now and well established. When I put him in the tank, it took him two hours to work his way down the rock to where is now and has been...

    Enough Light For Anemone?

    Wow Bang that must be an awesome sight to witness. Thanks for the pic. Does this species like rock more than sand? I was just reading Thomas's thread on selection and health and wanted to see a healthy one before I stop at the lfs to see some. I only planned on 1 clownfish to begin with...

    Enough Light For Anemone?

    Nope, no corals, just fish, inverts and about 60lbs of live rock. I think I have some aptasia (sp?) growing in the crevasses of the live rock, so that is why I was asking about species. If that is capable of living in there, I assume others might too. RBTA? Is that short for red bubble tip...

    Enough Light For Anemone?

    I have a 45 gallon tall that has been up and running for about 9 months. The height is 24" and I am using a coralife pc with 192 watts. Is that enough light to support an anemone? Do some species have different light requirements? My kids are looking for a clown and anemone and I am not...
