H. mag and Percula

[Vlado4x4]

I put a Mag about 4 days agoe and my percs still no interest.

Is it just time, or can i help in any way ?

Thanks

Give it time, Magnifica is a natural host for percula, so odds are heavily in your favor

I know thanks, i just guessed they where going to jump right in, that´s all.

Thanks !!!

Let it happen naturally, shouldn't take too long w/ a natural host.

Keep a close eye on your anemone. The only time I introduced a mag into may tank and my clowns didn't immediately make a bee line for the thing was when it was already quite sick.

Thanks for fixing the link OrionN. I would really apreciate your input on my new mag.
Does it look healthy to you ? i know the pic isn´t very helpfull ...

Mine seems similar during lights out.
Try to get some pic where we can see mouths too.

It is hard to tell if an anemone is problem free with just one picture. Problem if he deflates. If not he should be fine.
The aneome show in the picture is not in optimal condition. Too few tentacles, too much bare area on the oral plates. he hold himself well.
If he does not deflates, he will be fine. TLC and feeding, with good water condition, he will recover well without problem.

Sorry English is not my native language. What do you mean with TLC ?
Yesterday i gave some fish paste and eat it without a problem

TLC = tender love and care. Basically saying with feeding good water and good lighting it should recover well. It is kinda bald on the tentacles.

Thank´s nemmy !!

Any comment anyone ?

 

[nemmy]

As long as the mouth is shut and not gaping you should be fine. What type of lighting is it under and how much?

I would start feeding it some fresh seafood. It looks a tad starved of energy but seems to be holding itself up well.

I have it under Radions G1 with 70% intensity. Haven´t moved and inch since i put it there.
Will give ¨her¨ a shrimp tonight.

Thanks
