goby1 Posted November 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 I have the following in my ar 620 1 Bicolour blenny 1 Bangai cardinal 1 Blue Tang 2 Percula clowns 1 bta anemone that i got of chimera which is doing well (Thanks Chimera) 4 Small green anemones Not sure on type 3 Frilly/ hairy mushrooms green and purple 1 green hairy mushroom 2 purple mushrooms 1 blue mushroom 1 rather large pin cushion leather And i do plenty of wter changes as ar620 cant run protein skimmers but as i mentioned im looking into modifiying it so that i can. Since putting in the bta my female clown has become very protective of it and will attack anything that comes to close to her bta. Including my Tang and myself when cleaning.

jetskisteve Posted November 13, 2006 Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 cut out a section of the back filter tray & hang a skimmer on, discard all the crap in the tray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feelers Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 Do your 4 green unknown anemones look like this? If it does that means you have aiptasia, which is one of the pest organisms, it can kill fish and corals with its sting. There are a number of threads on how to deal with this - perhaps someone can link to one of the good ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goby1 Posted November 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 no not at all they arnt invasive befor i got my bta my female clown spent time in one of them it was sold to me from living waters in Tauranga as a substitute for a bta i was told that they would use it (which they did) But that a bta would be the best option.
