Haddoni and Gig in the same system?

[reefdogg1107]

Has any one here had success with these two species together?? I am sure the pair of Saddle backs won't mind another nem! I know anemones are suppose to be in species specific tanks, but I have bent and broken the "rules" before with other species of anemones and been fine. My concern is not them actually touching (in a 4 ft 120) but the chemical warefare. I have approximately 200 gallons of water volume total between the sump and display. The Haddoni is about 10 " in diameter, the gig is small now about 5" but i know will be larger when he settles in and reaches his normal size. Thanks in advance for any info! :fun2:

Even though they have competing needs - it is possible. Haddoni low with little flow and gig high with lots of light and flow. Should not have a prob with chemical warfare if your tank is big enough. I've kept both in the same tank in the past without problems. Just a warning - if one does go due to incompatibility issues, it will be the gig... Best of luck. Cheers, Keith

Ya my concern is not the lighting as the Haddoni will not shun the light but the excess flow I will need for the gig may not agree so much with the Haddoni. If I give it a go I will be sure to post some pics!
