Re: New addition.

No. I know they're not a natural host. I'm hoping for it to thrive and if it does over a period of time I'm going to try another BTA or seaba anemone. I tried a BTA before and it went strait down hill as soon as I got it, but I think it was already not doing good. Looked great, but I touched it to move it to the tank it had no stickyness what so ever and never ate and eventually died a slow death. I don't want to do that again so I'm experimenting with this cheap condy.

Re: New addition.

good call. they can be difficult. Mine have starte moving all over my tank and I am getting irritated. They had better stop cuz it is making me relocate corals as they get too close and sting them.

Re: New addition.

I currently have 2 BTAs. They stayed put for a week or two after moving them into the 90, but since then, they have been more active in moving around. They take turns moving, looking for just the "right place" I guess. I am not super concerned until they stop opening up. I just have to move a coral or two as they decide where to take up shop.

Re: New addition.

my condy stayed right where I put him for a long time. I think he only moved once. and that was a few inches. now the bubble tip, that sucker never stayed in one place. he roamed around until he found a power head. the end.

Re: New addition.

Ok thanks. I thought about a sebea but they're supposed to be harder to keep than a BTA that the only reason I picked BTAs. I'll have to do more researc on them and figure out which will work the best for me.
