Happy, Happy Clown

Amidst many opinions and much sage advice, I decided to buck the odds and add another anemone to my tank. My thanks to the wisdom of Lmecher, who understood that even though he advised against an additional anemone, was kind enough to suggest a possible viable combination. So far, he has been spot on. I added the BTA and now both clowns are in it and the happiest I have ever seen them. Whether or not the BTA lasts (and all indications are good) it has surely been amazing watching this pair covort in, with, and amoungst their new host. I am afraid that I'll be looking for a new home for my ol' Condy if things should degrade. Anyway, I have attached a pic which I believe expresses the clowns appreciation.

Hey Life~Reefer
First of all, looks like you made your clowns pretty happy, nice looking ocellaris pair. The bta it is a little light colored (not terrible) and with good lighting and supplimental feeding should color up for you.
Secondly I'm a she.

but I don't mind, good luck!

She... Oooops! Sorry about that.
The BTA is a bit darker now, positioned the lights for better illumination and have been feeding little chunks o' shrimp. It hasn't moved since settling in. I did have some concerns as to how rough Pete and Repete are on it, but it doesn't seem to be any worse for the wear.

I hate when people name their fish
but I have to say I love yours, very fitting. As long as the bta is not reacting negatively, they are not too rough. I have found (2 pairs) my ocellaris are very gentle hosters.

Named only to get people to quit calling 'em "Nemo" Now that bugged me... Oh, and I do refer to my Condy as "Annie mae", but how can you not do something that obvious? Everything else in the tank is "Bob". Bob the mushroom, Bob the Coral shrimp, Bob the Crab, Bob the Rock, etc, etc, etc...

methinks she was saying "Hi" to you regarding your earlier post, and then going on to comment on my initial post.

My sincere apology, I have a bad cold, darn decongestants are making me loopy, that's why I should quote more often. You were the one planning on getting a bta when your tank is aged right? Sorry about all the confusion.
