anemones

[Joshifer]

People on this forum scared the heck outta me with them. That they nuke tanks or randomly explode. Lol.

 

What about mini carpet anemones? They seem more like mushrooms. I read up a little about them they stay and inch or two and don't roam around.

 

Maybe I better not. They terrify me lol. I'll get a purple torch and pretend it's a nem.

How about rock nems? They pretty much stay in place and come in really nice colors.

Regardless, cover any pump intakes or you end up with a mess of a nem!

I use fountain pumps their not blade type and completely sealed. But too many horror story's about nems. I'd rather not. Especially in a pico.

A nice rock nem is always fun. I had one for a while. Id wait either way until the tank is a little more mature. Mine ended up dying from what I think was the alk swings I had. Nems love very stable tanks from what ive read and experienced.

i am a true believer that the tank needs to be older than 9months. I been keeping nems a few years no problems and the test one I transferred to my new tank suffered till the tank got older.

Nooo. Nems scare me. I only asked about the carpet figured it's less difficult then a regular one.

 

Maybe next year. A rose bubble. Or a purple long tentacle.
