So you say you want a carpet anemone, eh?

[OUsnakebyte]

Then I strongly suggest a remote location for them in a species-only setup. I would do this if I had the room in my apartment. Add this acan to the list of things eaten:

 

 

I do apologize for the poor pic - it's with my phone, under only actinics. But, you get the idea - the acan skeleton with no flesh. I just found it right by the carpet's lair. The only things I trust around or near it are xenia and star polyps...

 

I thought something was missing...

[jason the filter freak]

have you had problems with it eating fish?

[OUsnakebyte]

have you had problems with it eating fish?

 

Ohhhh... yeah... let's see...

 

Yellow tang - found the bones being yucked up in front of its lair

 

Longnose b'fly

 

Purple pseudochromis

 

Copperband b'fly - to be fair, this CBB was very ill, sort of dazed and confused, and sadly, drifted into the 'nem. I rushed over to pry it out and euthanized it (the fish, not the 'nem...).

 

That *may* be it; of course, I might remember more later.

 

And that's only fish...

 

Cheers

I have seen mine eat a firefish... and I know it is responsible for at least 3 chromis and a few other small fish....

Heck mine had powder blue and foxface on the menu before I finally realized what was happening. Otherwise I was always wondering why the snail shells would pile up in front of it. It was history as soon as it decided to start moving around the tank.

mine has never moved... thankfully!
