lucky yours is out in an open area..mine decided to go behind the rocks where I cant see it at all...Although when I get my last Koralia tomorrow and add it to the tank I am sure that will make it move.
I know mine is all happy cause its all nice and puffed up and was gobbling up some food I gave it tonight
before it took a walk overnight to the back of the tank

Your both lucky to have yours in your tank, mine are in a bucket LOL. My new tank is in a full blown cycle. The amonia is still going up up up!
Congrats Meowzer on your good fortune, may it continue.

Yes, you have a point but now I have to deal with new tank syndrome. It'll be fine, I will just have to go very slowly. I't hard to be patient. Sometimes I think I'm in the thing to deep. Too much stuff, tanks, buckets, hoses, chords, timers etc etc. When this is all over and done, I look forward to raising fry, more stuff, I guess it will never end will it??

Frustrating but I just love it all so much, I'm sick and need help

Just out of curiosity, since you are starting a new tank, but using some of your stuff from the other tank...does the 6 month rule for anemones not apply?

Well, I added a lot of new rock so I guess it will be like a new set up. I haven't got it all figured out yet. I am planning to add very slowly after cycling. I wiil go 1 fish at a time. I will wait to see how they effect the chemistry of the system. I am thinking it may be at least a month or more before I can start w/anemones. It's going to be a very slow process. They are perfectly fine where they are. I feel like a mad scientist with all the testing.
