    i posted a few new pictures in my other thread but i should have put them here.... anyway here's the new additions and a question for you:confused:

    i have bought a couple of bubble anemones hoping my clowns will take a shine and move in, at the minute they are at the front bottom of the tank and so far they have shown no interest, the clowns are allways near the return pipe, so im thinking should i move the anemone nearer that..??

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Anemones should not be repostioned unless for the purposes of moving away from overflows, powerheads, heaters or near some corals.

    They will go where they will get the best lighting and flow for them.

    Allow some time to pass for the clowns to discover the anemones and if that does not work there are some other interventions. No intervention is the best course right now IMO.

    BTW they are beautiful.

    ok thank you for that, so i will just let them do their thing and see where they end up, then i bought the green tipped one it was stuck solid to a piece of live rock, so rather than try to remove it they gave me the rock for free... bonus.

    the candy bubble seems to have found a place, that one came un attatched and i was advised to put it on the bed of the tank and allow it to do its thing, and it has now found its self a hole in a piece of rock and made a home by the looks of it, but the green tip does wander around a little so i will see where it wants to go...:)

    a little help if it's not to much to ask people..

    right as you will see in the pic's i have 2 anemones, the pink tipped (candy.?) has been fed twice in around 2 to 3 weeks, he has eaten a fresh prawn and a piece of fish and i have had no problems what so ever.

    however the bubble anemone i'm not to sure about, i have tried to feed it the same as the other one and it show's no interest what so ever, it has moved slightly and seems to have attatched itself to a larger piece of rock, is this normal and if not then what should i do next.? i feed the fish on brine shrimp sea greens etc, will it be eating this too..?? i don't want it to die due to my lack of care.:(

    thanks ady
