Suggestions on getting a clown to host AGAIN?

[Reggae Fish]

Well, now that we have a RBTA in the tank, how do I get my clowns (and neon goby) to quit hosting in the torch???Been there about 12 days but they still hang out in the torch.

Thought you had a rtba already? This a differant one?

 

[latazyo]

can you remove the torch and put it somewhere else until they notice the rbta? then try and sly larry it back in there when they aren't looking?

Clark- I had a green bubble tip when I first started but didn't make it...Got this from roy a couple weeks ago...I love it!


Latazyo-I thought about that and I'm thinking that is one of my few options...I wonder if I chased them into the anemone if they'd like it more or have they already become attached to the torch?

I think as far as they're concerned that is home and they aren't leaving

kind of like those old ladies that live down in st louis that are taking up arms against the burglars and refuse to move out because that has always been their home

Well then, looks like the torch is going on vacation

vacation to my house?

When I say vacation I mean coming back trottie...I love this one...It is one of my favorites, especially under actinics...nice and green with yellow tips

Just move the stuff around in the tank and they will take to it eventually, although I still feel your tank is too young for a RTBA (which I told you once before)

How long would you wait?

You could try one of those green plastic baskets like strawberry's come in at the grocery store. Place it over the torch so they can't get to it and there are enough holes to let it still get light. Leave some strawberry juice and add some Ensure protein drink and you have a new Weiss product! :lol:
