ScooterTDI February 11, 2018 Share February 11, 2018 Did that clown just find the anemone? How long did it take them to figure it out? I'm still waiting for my pair to discover that the tank is bigger than a few square inches in the upper corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YHSublime February 12, 2018 Author Share February 12, 2018 Maybe she snores. It's very possible! My plight this weekend was attempting to fit a carpet anemone into this tank. It did have a bit of a walk about, luckily I was able to keep it contained. I did a few things to make this easier. One, I removed all the sand. Part of my low flow issue was keeping sand in place. There is the front portion of the tank that is staring to get coraline already on the bottom, and I thought I might just grow zoas on the glass, it'll soon replace and cover the sand. Well, almost all of the sand. I did this in two water changes, one Friday, and one on Sunday. Carpet did have a go at my ricordea garden, but pretty much everything else has made it unscathed thus far. Ironically, it seems to have settled onto my Anemone Island. I've cleared a big space for it, but in typical fashion, it's doing whatever it wants. I'll post pictures up once it's settled, and I have things looking a little better than disheveled.

YHSublime February 18, 2018 Author Share February 18, 2018 Took most of the sand out. Added carpet nem. Pictures: There is a good line up here. Moved some SPS: Setosa, Disney, Sunset Milli I've found not one, but two tiny rock nems growing on this rock. I'm pretty sure they came from the PO, I have moved a lot around, chipped a lot of rock, but still cool! Means I have 6 rock nems now, at least that I know about!

YHSublime February 19, 2018 Author Share February 19, 2018 It's really looking great, Isaac. Thanks, Alan. Still trying to keep from tweaking and just enjoying it. I regret pulling the sand, but I think it will be better in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epleeds February 19, 2018 Share February 19, 2018 Why did u pull the sand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YHSublime February 19, 2018 Author Share February 19, 2018 Why did u pull the sand? A couple reasons. I was breaking down the other nano and needed to move the carpet over, and I thought I could keep it happy and easily remove it on a glass bottom. Turns out, it liked the sand part better, which works because it ended up just how I would have liked it. Second, the amount of flow was determining the sand placement in a few spots for about 2/3 of the tank. It was a constant fluxing of me pretending I had any control and continuously moving it, and the front third getting bare bottom anyways. Third, I realized the way my zoanthids are growing on the rock right now, I will probably have to move them somewhere in the next couple months, and the only other space is going to be the bottom. I intend to start gluing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roni February 19, 2018 Share February 19, 2018 Looks great! There's very little that beats a nice haddoni. I wish they weren't so good at catching fish (or eating fish that blunder into them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they weren't so good at catching fish (or eating fish that blunder into them). Thanks! I agree, hard to beat, and this one really adds a nice pop to the tank. I did have a small "What have I done?!" moment in the first 24 hours, but I think once it's settled, its settled. This is slowly turning into an anemone tank...

YHSublime February 21, 2018 Author Share February 21, 2018 nice carpet, makes me want to get one Ugh. Buy this one. It’s on the other side of my rock this AM. On top of an Ultra Rock Flower Anemone. I had to run out to a meeting, will pull the URFN when I get home and hope the carpet stays put. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YHSublime February 26, 2018 Author Share February 26, 2018 So the evolution of this carpet nem has kept me on my toes. It seems to like the back of the tank, but today it's on the glass bottom instead of the rock. I've removed the back rock structure, as to keep it from toppling over again, because that's what happened the first time. This 22 gallon space has been arranged several different ways in the past 5 or so months, it's getting to be a bit silly. Hopefully it'll nestle it's way into this area and be happy. I'd like to see my clowns hosting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
