Took the chance!!!

I decided to skip the condy and just get the bta. Well I went to a lfs I normally dont go to because of the distance it is from my house, he had purple condys and I was going to buy one, but asked if he ever gets any other anemones in he, then said he has a bta in the back, so I went and looked at it and just couldnt resist it is about 4 inches in diameter and very green and nice looking. Oh by the way biff I got it for only $30.00, so I just couldnt pass it up. I have acclimated it for 1 hour and 45 min and as soon as I put it in it opened up and in about 1 hour it was roaming up one of the rocks. Man I just love this thing I just hope I dont kill it. Well I was so excited I just had to post a thread.

Re: Took the chance!!!

Believe me I will make sure it dosnt get hurt by the power head!!! It might be awhile before I can get a pic. I just need to go out and buy a stupid cam I didnt think I'd use it that much because I hardly ever used the one we got that broke.

Congrats! I'm jealous! My clowns keep looking around for something to host. Might try my hand at a coral next month - gotta get the light situation fixed first. All my fish are doing well and my params are all still good. I'm psyched they are doing so well. Anxious to see it!

Bean try a xenia my clown has been using it more often in these last three days or so, at night he cuddles into it. Xenia are fun to watch pulse, look good and are easy to care for.
