New Invention : Fake Anemones.

[wocka]

i was just thinking about all those people with inadequit lighting to have an anemone that want one for their clowns. i was thinking of a fake anemone that moves in the current or when a powerhead is on it. here it is : fill it up with water so the tentacles have body to them, place a powerhead by it so it gets some water movement on it, then it should look like an anemone thats swaying in the water. and clowns might go into it. just giving my .02$

 

[wocka]

any ideas if this will work?

 

[oyam1]

yes
i see them doing it at my LFS.

Might grow a lot of algea on it though.

 

[wocka]

well then maybe coraline would grow on it too? that would be pretty. but do u think it could be possible to do that

 

[firefish3]

with a proper material its a great idea if you invent a new one tell me about it.:joy:

 

[wocka]

i really want to start this up. but i dont know how i could get the material etc.. this could be a good idea, NOBODY TAKE IT!!

 

[viper_930]

It has already been done.

 

[wocka]

oh really.. i havent seen it yet, so ur saying there are plastic anemones that the tentacles move around and stay inflated???

 

[viper_930]

Here is a pic of them.

ya but my invention they would sway in the current, and not be all still. atleast the clown will be able to swim threw it without hitting plastic

 

[viper_930]

I do not believe that the tentacles need to sway in the current to encourage a clown to go into it.

 

[oyam1]

and if you get plastic fish, you dont need to feed or do water changes...
