Today, my small Rod's onyx clowns arrived and a new RBTA arrived. Two of the small clowns are going in my 14g bio cube, and the other is a mate for my larger ocellaris in my 55g. I have a couple of questions.
1. Is there any chance the two small clowns will be sucked into the filter system of the biocube? If so, what can I do to remedy that?
2. What do I need to be looking for in the next couple of days? What are causes for concern?
3. RBTA - It's still shriveled up pretty badly with its mouth sticking out. Should I be concerned or will it just need some time?
4. Clowns - Earlier they were swimming around the tank in circles, and now they are swimming in the top of one of the back corners. Again, anything I should be concerned about?
5. Is there anything I can do to make anyone's acclimatization easier?
6. The small clown in the 55g was really scaring me, just him being so much smaller than everyone else. I am even a little worried about him getting lost or being eaten by the anemone, so I put him in the hamster ball at the top of my aquarium, so I can keep an eye on him. How long should I leave him in there?
Hopefully, it's too early to be worried about a lot of these things, but what can I say? I'm a proud new mommy, and I want to make sure that the new critters make it.
Thanks for your help!
