anemone ??

[evilss]

hello i was wondering if you could put a condy anemone in with my aggressive tank? if not are there any kinds that i can add?
thanks.

got one in mine and it does fine.

You'll just be wasting money putting an anemone in an aggressive tank. The fish or the water quality will get it. Bo

I have to agree with grouper , I found out the hard way though. I had a condi in mine , it lasted 2 months.

 

[reeferdude]

well condi's are like 6 bux and i have had mine for like 6 months in my tank.

look im not picking on you again but, you keep saying my money my tank (i.e there only like 6 bucks) if everyone outthere thought that way then the ocean wouldnt be able to keep up with the demand that we put on it. most of us realize that reefs/corals which are homes and life support for these fish are on the decline and we need to do everything we can to help not destroy it. please if your going to have that opinion "please,please"keep it to your self so not to encourage others to follow that line of thinking. yes condi are cheap and can be tank raised but its the point of the matter!! mr hanky

Well the point I was trying to stress is that I have one doing fine in my tank and I was wanting to know the reason why it isn’t a good idea. About the your tank, your money thing, the saltwater fish hobby is very large but the worlds oceans are far larger. I understand what you are saying and respect your opinion but I think that it’s a little overblown.

reeferdude-
even though though oceans are larger than this hobby its only a matter of time before there is nothing left. it may not happen when any of us r around but eventualy it might

All depends what you have in there. SOME aggressives can live fine with them. Others would eat em. Others, the anenome would eat. Depends depends. What do you have in there?

Just a warning if you do go get a Condi, WATCH YOUR ARMS. I have been stung twice by mine now. Last night I was feeding my eel and my arm was all the way inside the tank, all of a sudden I got this burning sensation on the inside of my elbow, I looked and that part of my arm was in the tentacles. It isn’t a really bad sting but it is still a pain in the butt cause it itches really bad for about a week.

porcupine puffer
undolate trigger
antennta lion
snowflake eel
blue damsel
all fish are very young. only have tank for about 5 months.
