long tentacle nem placement advice

So I got a lta nem last sat. If I knew it would be such a pita I wouldn't have gotten it. Anyway took my clowns all but a day to host it. Awesome right? All is going well except one thing it won't burry in or grab hold of anything. From what I've read ppl say to burry it and others say don't touch it. Well long story short I tryed burrying it about 10 times. I'm not losing a $100 torch from a nem being blown around. This was a horrible idea. Found out the hard was fiji pink is too thick and everytime I burry it the nem just floats right back out. This is driving me nuts anyone know what I should do? Leave it? Keep trying to burry? Sorry for the long post

i had a buddy of mine put his in about 1 inch in diameter and about 2-3 inch high pvc. He stayed there just move him around to a spot where there is some flow and decent light and he wont home.

 

That's a great idea thanks a lot. Never would have thought about that.

 

no problem all buddy. best of luck

 

THAT is a great idea!! Let us know how it works Brian.

 

Worked awesomely. Nem is not happy at all being moved again but it will puff back up soon. Thanks again for the idea. [/IMG]

 

a small clear acrylic box with no bottom would also work nice allows more light in

 

goodluck, do try to avoid moving it though, in my personally experience there is nothing nems dislike more :s….

also clowns don't host anything, its the anemone that hosts them…just saying…. I'm sure vinny is crying in a corner somewhere every time he reads this
