They are currently in a 20L soon to be upgraded to a 120 in about 3 or 4 months.Iam running 2 150 watt mhs 14k approx 10'' above the water.I do 5 gallon water changes every week, run carbon all the time.Tank is skimmerless and no sump.

nice anenome garden you got goin there! How are the 4 occelaris getting along?

 

[SNAKEMANVET]

They get along very well, I bought them when they were 2 months old at 1/4'' to 1/2'' long .They are siblings and have established the pecking order.

Wow! Great pic. They all look so happy and healthy. Thank for for posting.

That's incredible. If you decide to sell PM me those all look pretty healthy.

Just wish the rbtas would move up alittle further to get a pic of them.We had a frag meet last week and bought another rbta, it is about 3'' when open. And of course it moved down into the rock work.

Thanks Gary and reeferman for your comments.

You have a great group of animals ready for that 120 gallon. Are the RBTA's to the left and right in the front of the pic the one you got from me that cloned?

 

[SNAKEMANVET]

If you look to the right of the peppermint shrimp,thats one of the rbtas.You can see the edge of it curling up.It is partly under the gbta.The clone is to the right of gbta that is in back of the rock.

Is it ok to move them around? I have a red tip and a green tip that both moved way back into the rock out of sight. I was able to feed them better when they were in the front.

I tried adding a powerhead hoping the watermovement would make them want to move, but no luck. Is it ok to move them and see if they stay, or just leave them alone and hope they eat ok?

 

[SNAKEMANVET]

I just let them go where they want to, I don't mess with them no more than I have to.My gbtas have moved at times as they grew. If the foot can no longer fit in the crevice they would move alittle.As long as they are eating I wouldn't worry.

Very cool. Glad your anemones are doing so well. And your ocellaris look great too.
