Got my first Anemone.

purchased a bta from my lfs yesterday

here is a pic of it.




i hope my clown pair figure out it could be their home sometime soon, so far they have completely ignored it.

 

nice addition.

there are ways to help influence the clown to host...

 

yea i tried the flashlight thing last night, but they just sat there cuddled up in their normal spot, i have yet to try the Picture taped to the glass, haha.

 

Clowns are monkey see monkey do. once one does it, the other will as well. You can put a replica clown on a stick and coax them in.

Give them a few. It took mines a few days, but they were already displaying hosting type behavior with other objects in the tank prior the anemone addition.

 

very nice, that BTA is pretty big

 

I might just have to try the toy on a stick, seems promising considering clowns are well... clowns. ; )

 

i like the clowns on a stick most because it seems like a lot of fun.

 

question...

how much will this guy be movin all over the tank, will it find a place to call home or does it roam around all the time?

 

very nice
