after one year and 2 month finally

[Data]

I was very fortunate to have my two false percs team up and become husband and wife over a year ago.
I also provided them with a nice home, a GBTA.
but instead, they seamed to be interested in power heads, return pipes, corals and rocks.
they never even got close to the GBTA.
yesterday morning I woke up to see the most rewarding thing for my patience, the male started to hang around the GBTA.
today it looks like he finally moved in.
I'm soooo happy and it only took one year and two month.

the female is getting closer too.

What lighting do you have, just the 130watts? How long has your anenome been in your tank? I just put one in my 20 long and people are saying that my 130watts isnt enough..

 

[Data]

orbit 30" 2X65W
dual daylight 6700k/10000k
dual actinic 420nm/460nm

this is all I have.

I feed the anemone daily, frozen food, life feeder guppies and goldfish.

Data, very bad idea to feed tropical fish to your anemone, most fish stores keep medications in there tanks because of their over crowding and thus the fish are medicated.
Stick with silversides for feeding your anemone, but great on the clowns moving in, congratulations.

I didn't know that, thanks for telling me.

so its okay to keep black perculas with ocellaris?

paool,
I believe black percula is a common misnomer. The black and white fish you see in the pic. Is actually the black variant of A.ocellaris.
The closest thing to a black percula i've seen is an onyx clown.

Ditto on the FW feeders, very bad indeed. even feeding your GBTA some mysis and other fish food would be ok
