    Anemone Question

    It looks very unhappy to me, do you have a lot of water movement in the tank? If not , add a power head to the tank , pointing in it's direction. It is not expelling waist but being unhappy. And I would suspect that food would make it very happy. It is an animal that does not do well without...

    Anemone Help

    It looks to me like the tank is way dark. Even though it looks like you have a lot of bulbs but maybe not the correct wattage??? Do you have clowns in this tank? Maroons will bite the end of the tentacles and destroy them. So let us know on the livestock that you have. Also the skimmer looks to...

    Bubble moved.

    Al, the "guy" at the store has no business selling saltwater livestock. Everything in the sea has to eat, brine shrimp is not what they eat in the wild, fish are. Even though you can't get to it, you need to keep feeding it silversides. For information on correct care, visit my site at Caring...

    Bubble moved.

    I wouldn't move him either. You have to figure out the reason for him moving. When they do they are usually unhappy with where they where at. Did you change the water flow in that area? Are your lights out in that area> Are you feeding him enough. Anemones will move if there is not enough food...

    anemone behavior

    Thanks Ted, that is very sweet, prayers always help. I have put up with this for 4 years this November. And they of course don't want to give me strong pain meds for fear of me getting addicted to them. I take Methadone and Hydrocodone for then something for nerve pain. I hurt it when I lifted a...

    my anemone is shriveled

    If you tank is over 6 months old and stable, you can get one anytime you are ready. I personally love having Clowns with Anemones as the co-existence is fun to watch. I really like the Clarki as they get big, usually around 3 inches long and very wide and they are super docile with Anemones. But...

    Anemone Question

    DC. I feed raw uncooked veins removed shrimp from the frozen food section at Walmart. Also I feed Silversides but find no difference in them with the Anemones. They love them both.

    my anemone is shriveled

    Ted, Anemone only tanks are great, but I find them a bit boring. I used to have a 65 BTA only tank and finally took half the Anemones out and put them in another 1 year old tank. All clowns except Maroons are very easy on Anemones. Maroons are the worst clown to keep with them as they are...

    Anemone Question

    Dankolle. Anemones need to be fed, no matter what species they are. Can you post a picture of it for us to see, and also what your parameters are? And also about your tank, flow, lighting etc? Karen

    my anemone is shriveled

    Sorry about the loss and sorry for the Anemone. Sad to say you harassed it to death. Moving and touching your Anemone is what killed it. I know it is blunt to say what I have just said, but it is true. Once in the tank. Never move an Anemone. Leave it alone and let it settle in on it's own ok...

    anemone behavior

    Hi Joker, wanted to mention that having a maroon clown with new splits can and will cause problems for your new baby Anemone. If your clown is very aggressive in his Anemone. Like diving into it, sucking on the tips of the tentacles as they always do and steal their food,you will need to remove...

    Anemone Help

    Jason. I see that you have cleaner shrimp. Have you noticed them hanging around the Anemones? If so you will need to feed them first to keep them busy while your Anemones eat. They can and will pick food right out of the mouths of Anemones. Also as was stated, get rid of the bioballs, they are...

    My 4 year old mixed reef tank

    The skimmer is a simple seaclone and I use them on 2 of the 3 tanks I have. They are the only ones I will use as most just don't do the job that these do, you can see pics of them on my site.
