The clowns have completely stopped going to the BTA. They are now in the mag full time.
They also started to fake egg laying ever since they made the move to the mag. Here's a little close up video. 3 mins.

Caught my female clownfish going to the bubble tip anemone a few times today. Shortly after the video was taken the clown went back to the BTA only to get stung by it. She got really startled and stayed in Magnifica.
Having added a few nice fairy wrasses (Flame and Rhomboid) in the last two days I might take the BTA out of the tank. Otherwise the anemone is like a land mine for the wrasses.

Very nice! What are you using for water movement, it looks very natural?

Pulse mode like this:

Ahh...pulse mode. Thanks man, great looking setup BTW! Mags are simply the best nems, I have had many different nems throughout the years and they just cannot be beat.

Thanks. Yeah Mags have quickly become by favorite also.

I fragged the BTA today, my first anemone propagation. Top half has healed a little faster than the bottom but both are doing ok.

Picked up a small gig today that is about 5" in diameter. It wasn't completely bleached and only cost me $25. I figured why not. Started Cipro already.

Today

The true percula clown is trying really hard to get the Onyx clownfish to lay eggs. She may or may not be ready yet but I think they are on the right track to becoming a breeding pair. They have been cleaning a particular spot on the rock.

Broke down the tank today and rehomed the mag. I kept the clowns though. Here's the mag in its new 100 gallon tank under Radions.
