WTB: Anemone

[DrDave]

Looking to purchase 2 anemone to keep my clown fish happy.

Anemone's are not necessarily the answer to keeping the Clowns happy. You could try other things. Also if you don't have the right parameters and lighting the anemone might not do well and when it dies it could foul the tank and kill everything.

Anemone's are very sensitive animals. Keep that in mind.

Make sure you have strong lighting, good flow & a large enough tank. Different clowns prefer different anemones. Do your research first. You need to keep them away from your corals. Some roam & some pretty much stay where they are put.

How long has your aquarium been established? What type of lighting do you have? What are your tank specs, gallons, skimmer?

3 week old 90 gallon reef with fully cured live rock 150 lbs. Good lighting, good flow, water levels all good. Presently have them in a large acrylic container with holes in the main tank just below water level. Been feeding it brine shrimp for now which they take readily. Just don't want the thing to wander around the tank being pushed alone by current flow.

What type of lighting is "GOOD LIGHTING"? Normal strip light? Power Compact, T5, Metal Halide, LED, Incandescent?

It is going to wander around see your other thread for more reasons why!

There is no way to stick it somewhere. It will go where it feels it wants to be for that time, and if it decides to move, it's going to move wherever it wants to go.
