New Anemone Tank

[imcosmokramer]

The only thing I would change about the rockwork is, that I would use epoxy to begin with. Now I get to play around with it in the tank. good times.

 

[imcosmokramer]

well, I had an algae breakout that came and went on it's own. I'll add some more photos.

Here is a new fts

I got three new rescue anemones. 1 looks good, but the other two will probably still die.

Here is the first one, and one of the 9 sexy shrimp I added

Here are the two that are not doing well:

and a few more shots bc I've been neglecting:

I've seen worse bounce back, so you never know. Good luck!

Great bubbles. Too bad they almost never stay long term, but sure do look great when they're there.

Looks great! Glad you kept the sand.

How do you think the sexy shrimp will fare with the Clark's? When I had Clark's, my female got ticked off at anything that got near her toadstool leather--I once saw her grab a tiny hermit crab that was trying to climb onto the coral and shake it furiously before flinging it away. LOL

Well, I'll keep treating them well, and we'll see. As for the bubbles, so far so good.

If the Clarkii get's angry, I'm sure I'll lose them, but hopefully she stays calm for a while.

i have a shallow 36"x24"x12" that i wasnt sure i was going to do with but you have convinced me to make a nem tank or half nem tank. very very clean looking.

btw, i recently saw a lemon drop bta at someones house when i was picking up some frags... i think it would add some great color to your tank.

Looking good. I've recently constructed one of four that are nearly the same size (24x24x19.) I'll keep an eye out here for ideas.

Thanks. If you want to give that person my username, that would be great. I'd love to get one. Can't wait to see your tank.

I also have a similar tank, but with all sps.

WOWWY! I simply love your tank. Amazingly beautiful! I'm very glad you've left the sand in, at least for now, as I can't stand the look of BB. It's all personal prefrance though and completely up to you. If you do end up switching out the sand at some point, I'd make this suggestion:
http://www.reefsand.com/ Black Beach #1. I put 40lbs of this in my 54g corner bow along with 30lbs of Samoa Pink. I love the black, and wish I went with black only, but it looks good mixed. I think it would really make the colors of the nems come out even more than they already do.

Whatever you decide to do with it, please keep the pics coming because that tank is just so awesome! Great job!

 

[reefscape15]

one more thing I forgot to mention. If you are still planning the ric's in that tank, I'd go with something like this.......

http://www.cherrycorals.com/product.php?productid=1934&cat=134&page=1

I think the softer and more subtle colors of these ric's will add beauty to the tank without taking away from the lovely vivid colors of the nem's. Just another thing to think about!

 

[imcosmokramer]

good ideas, I have about 60 rics in another tank, so maybe I'll add some.

 

[imcosmokramer]

anyone else have some thoughts about adding rics?

 

[monkeybiz]

i think you should add a clam or two in the sand bed. that would look great.

 

[mranthonymb]

whoa these nems are nice
