I got my first GBTA about a month ago for my pair of clowns to host in. All was going well at first the nem was looking really good. I worked with my LFS to make sure I have all the proper lighting and that everything was all good in my tank for me to get the nem. I have been working with my LFS since day one of setting up the tank so that I did not rush my tank and let it do all the cycling and everything. All of my numbers are within normal limits both with my tests and by my LFS. Now the problem with the nem is that the smaller of the two clowns has hosted in the nem and it seems to be stressed out. For the past week or so the nem has been going through phases where it will be all limp with its mouth open in the morning and part of the day to then puffing up (like it is filling back up with water) and then staying closed. MY LFS said that my clown was "loving" the nem to death that I should separate them so I have but the nem is still doing this. He is still attached to the rock and still has color. I am just wondering if he is going to live or what the heck he is doing.
