yeah, i did. just kinda went away on its own really. yes, the cleaner has gotten a bit more active and is roaming my tank right now. my brother said it wasn't worth cause it is just going to stay upside down like that. 10 seconds after he said that it went on the sand, showed off, then went back to chill. lol. here is a pic of him this night. active and roaming.

Once they realize you are feeding them they are not shy at all. I havn't tried the hand thing yet, but when I have a turkey baster full of mysis shrimp they eat it right out of the baster. I just have to hold it still and slowly squeeze the shrimp out and they grab a hold of the turkey baster eating it as it comes out. I figure it won't be long before they take food out of my hand.

ok, so i noticed that my purple mushroom was touching my green ric. nothing happened and i checked on it 30 minutes later and the purple mushroom had retracted that one part of its 'body' will they get used to each other or will they do chemical warfare

Nemo,
I would move them apart a bit, if one retracted that means the other one semi attacked it.

I keep waiting for my cleaner shrimp to clean my clowns. The shrimp is willing but the clowns are not.

i know what you mean. my clown wanted to get cleaned the first day the shrimp was introduced, then lost intrest.

Well, nothing much happened. just moved my purple mushroom up a little more. oh, and i got my finger cleaned! kinda weird thing is i washed my hand after it cleaned it. lol. but it's a parent rule. my xenia attached full too. even my kenya tree didn't attach as fast! right now i am looking for a squamosa (sp) clam or a orange ricordia. already found the ric couple days back but can't buy it 'till next week. parent rule? nope, my rule! lol yea, i know, the only clam i can keep with pc is a derasea(sp), but i have kept one with pc, the only thing is that it will be up high in the tank. well, thats the update. will try to get pic's up tomorrow.
