    I'll bet if you helped out with maintenance, you might think twice.....

    Picked up some reject Picasso clowns and put the in the QT tank. I was surprised at how quickly they all went for the anemone.

    ha ha ha... that is freakin cool! I never thought of that. I wonder if the anemone is like "dude, wtf?" or if it actually likes all the action.

    thats a great tank, and the others rock too! how do you do water changes, and how much volume do you have to top off every other day?

    Thank you! There are two anemones in the tank, but they all went for one before they figured out that there was a second in the tank. Now that they have found it, there doesn't seem to be such an over crowding issue.....

    I use a very long hose that I can reach all 10 tanks in the house. I top off about 40 gallons every other day.

    Wow!!!:eek: All i can say is that i am very impressed by the 600 gallon not to mention all the other tanks that you maintain and that crazy electric bill you manage. I thought I had it hard trying to keep up w/ a 90 and a 20 nano tank hahaha I guess when I'm doing regular maintenance I'll think about all your tanks and I wont feel so bad lol But keep up the great work b/c it is def. paying off.:cheesy:
