Hey guys, Got a purple tip anemone today. Place it in my tank on a live rock. Until now, hasn't strayed away from the rock. Was wondering.

1) How come my bali clown dont play with the anemone?

2) What kind of light is better? a 55watt PL Blue/White tube or, a low output T5 2 tube light, one white the other blue? Both 2 FT lights.

Thanks for reading.

hi bro ...

if i am not wrong ... anemone need strong lights( best say 150w mh ) .. and when they die. .they are able to pollute the whole tank ..... just be careful ... :D maybe u just placed it in .. give the clown a few days to get used to it :)

cheers :P:phone:

Just give the clownfish some time.

Still there may be 2 reasons...not all clowns require an anemone, and depends on the species of your anemone (is it a quadricolour - Bubble Tip Anemone?). Maybe you can post a pic of your anemone? :)

Wait and see how lah.

It would be good if u could get a stronger light, even my 2x24W HO T5 is still not enough for the anemone in my tank. Like what the others said, give the clowns sometime before they will eventually host it.

Is it a sebae anemone ? since u said it has purple tips

I think SBS Transit is right. Looks like a sebae anemone. Just give the clown some time. Maybe it'll take to the anemone. Actually, I think the most popular anemone with clowns is the bubble tip. :)

It needs time to get use... My red BTA took 2-3 days to settle down to my 150W MH 10K...

It took 3mths to get my Domino Damsel to attach...

It took 1 yr to get my Nemo to attach...

It took 1 day for my Anemone crab to attach...

Give it lots of light and good moderate flow + silver fish feed 1/week...

Here's my RBTA... in Full bloom!!!

Have fun!

I also have pink Sebae... which I got it for 6months already... I think Sebae is harder to host... so far only my ###### shrimps have attached to it...
