My RBTA and Blue Carpet

[poolkeeper1]

I just bought a RBTA about a week ago, and have the same
clown fish but it just looks at it but wont go in.

Thanks for the information. I'm definitely tempted to get one. I've read they are easy to care for and hardy. Yours looks very happy on its gigantea.

I believe that the Maroon clown is a natural host for the RBTA in the wild, give it a little time it will find it. Mines hosted as soon as the anemone hit the water...I thought it was going to stress it out at first but it did good.

The Porcelain crab does not get any special attention from me, whenever I feed the carpet it get's a piece too..I use natural sea water so it is always filter feeding

Here is an update: I got the gigantea and put it in my 300 gallon reef . It has flourished and is the centerpiece of my tank!

Holy cow! it has gotten huge! I am happy that ya got it in your tank so that it could grow like it should looks sooooo beautiful in there! is the crab still around?

 

[tooshay]

Yep, but the clowns kicked him out. He stays on the rock right by the foot of the anemone, and seems to be happy with his new crib!
