New Anemone Tank

[dc]

Well it looks nice, I would have let the tank mature a lot longer before adding anemones tho.

Hopefully I'll get to reset up tanks at some point and I'd love to do a cube for an anemone tank.

yeah, I may have waited a little longer before the nems, but You seem like you know what your doing and bta's are forgiving, and are unlikely to wonder across sand i would cover the vortech for a bit though. Nice pair of tomatos would look ace in there, and authentic, which is what I like to see in species tanks.
Good luck.

Oh, sorry...forgot to include this. I have a system in the basement that has about 180 gallons. This Cube was simply plumbed into the existing system, so no cycle will occur. I did not add any liverock (as there is plenty), so the only addition to the bioload are the nems. Again, I should have mentioned this.

AdTravels - the vortech is covered with the supplied "sponge" material.

dc - Why? "Current Tank Info: :^( Soon to be none! "

i knew you knew what you were doing

No worries. I'd much rather have someone question a decision, than watch an entire tank full of live stock die from ammonia.

If I have time today, I'll bring 3 or 4 more anemones over today and post pictures.

Moving, my tanks aren't gone yet, but they are empty.

 

[imcosmokramer]

Are you setting up new ones in the new place.....?

 

[dc]

Eventually.

 

[imcosmokramer]

Just added 5 more nems. Will add post pictures shortly.

 

[imcosmokramer]

So I added 5 more anemones to the tank today. 3 RBTA's, 1 GBTA, and another GBTA with pink tips. Took about 15 minutes for them to attach and look happy, then I started taking pictures.

Thank you. I should be able to take more pictures tomorrow and I will update. I fed the nems last night (silverside) and they look very happy today.

[imcosmokramer]

Thanks Henry - I'll be able to take more pics this weekend. What do you guys think of adding Rics to the tank? or keep it only nems?
