suphew Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 I have an anemone shrimp (Periclimenes brevicarpalis) in my tank, I have noticed since it went in that all my larger anemones (4) have started moving around and arn't looking as happy. I found one refference online that suggested they eat anemone tenticals but all other refferences say they are safe. Does anyone know anything about them? The anemones don't look damaged at all, they are just moving and not expanding as fully, I have also added a little more flow to the tank, started dosing vodka, and have been adjusting my cal reactor because the bubble counter was leaking, so there could be other reasons for the anemone movement, but all this has been done for over a month (other than the cal reactor) so would have expected the anemones to have setled down by now.

wasp Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 You're a lucky guy to get one of these I've never seen one in NZ. I used to spend quite a bit of time in the anemone forum at RC, and other anemone literature, peoples experience seemed to be they are safe, but one or two said they felt they annoyed the anemone. Be interested in the updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suphew Posted June 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Yep thats the bad boy. As far as I know I have the only one, there were going to be two arrive and I was going to share with someone else, but only one showed up, and his anemones are all at the back of his tank and can't be seen.

raeh1 Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 I think adding the vodka may effect the anemones.. maybe. Slappers what do you think??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
