Mojo care?

[Riona]

Hm, call me an idiot. I deserve it I just got off the phone with my LRS, they were given a small majono by a guy who wanted to know what it was. I'm bringing it home soon and was wondering(since I would like to Try to keep it alive) what sort of care it'd need to be happy and take over its personal little tank. Right now it has a 2 gallon tank(probably will put 1 lb of LR in there too) with way too much filtration(50X turnover rate, I'm going to put a divider in there so it won't be mauled by the current) and the extra light off of my 10 gal. reef(65 watt pc fixture, not all of the light goes in the tank, a lot of it goes off into the room too) and a natural window.

What else can I do to keep the little pest happy? I'll probably feed it a bit of stuff off of my other fish's food(mmm, frozen mix of meats... mysis, a bit of veggies, some fish, beefheart, bloodworms etc) but how often should I feed it?

I don't think it matters what you do. It is a pest. It should live through just about anything. I have never had it, but if it is anything like aptasia it will spread and grow like crazy.

It is kinda like aptasia, but they are pretty. They do spread like crazy and most people want rid of them, just as they do aptasia. I think since it is being kept in its own tank, it make look cool.

Yeah. The tank it's going to have to itself(technically. also has a couple of zoos attached to the rock, though I'm gonna try to get those off and stick them in my 10 gal.) with some rock and argonite. It's a tiny one, but it looks nice. Dark green with bright pink tips. I just hope it grows like a weed, I want to see that little tank taken over by it. THAT would look nice!

Aha! I got the tank cycled, brought home the little guy and accidentally ticked it off to the point that it dropped off of the rock... Oops..... It's sitting on the wall of the tank now, near the top(hopefully it'll move down some...) but looks so nice I love the colours on it! It's open and has only been in the tank for a few minutes. The zoos are in my main tank... Now to hope I can keep it alive and get it to take over its domain

I'll post a few pics when I get batteries for my camera.

Hm, still no pics, but I'm going to re-do the tank. I'm going to get a smaller filter for it. The one I've got is way strong, yet the one I'm going to get has about 38 GPH rate. On a 2 gal tank that should be pretty nice. And I'm also going to get a light for it. I figured it would be okay between a bright window and the main SW tank, but it is leaning towards the main tank. I'm going to get a normal desk light and just put a 10 watt 50/50 screw in bulb in it. Figure that should be enough light. I'm still having trouble trying to figure out what to feed it though. I've read in some places that they're filter feeders, and that that is why they do better in nutrient rich systems, so should I just once in a while drop a bit of food in the tank to let it rot, so to speak, or should I still give the food directly to it?
