My 36 Gallon Bow Front Anemone species tank
I moved the anemone and leftover live rock from the sump of the frag tank into this tank. a little aiptasia now but doesnt matter. Moved the 4 green BTAs over...one got torn in half, was attached to two different lights...will see how it does. The flow is not quite good enough, considering adding more although these guys should be good . I am considering adding the condylactis, but will wait, since they are from different areas of the reef.
The torn anemone is completely healed just showing a little overlap at the edge of its foot. One of the other clones is almost split on its own...Added the 2 maroon clowns from the seahorse tank to this tank, as they were getting a bit aggressive.
