    After being months without a RBTA and watching my clowns wander from every toadstool in my tank in hopes of being hosted I broke down and picked up a nem. A friend of mine gave it to me as his has been splitting like crazy. I decided on the 125 as the new home since my reef tank has been collecting a lot of coral with great growth. A wandering nem with a bunch of corals equals disaster. After 4 hours it picked a spot and has been there all week. My maroons were hosted within 2 hours, crazy. Its a bit inflated in the pic but its very healty and super sticky.

    Thank you. The blue throat took about 2 weeks to come out from hiding but now he's always out looking for food. Him and the sohal compete for food, its funny to watch them together. Zero aggression suprisingly.
