Did you perform fresh water dip for them before adding into tank?

may be nudis attack!!

HUH !! i have too ?? the reborn uncle say no need... say go home put inside tank can ready ..

Sad to say.... the ones that I got from reborn have nudis inside. Better to play safe and do a freshwater dips or something.

Okay Dude;

If you bought from Reborn, do a dip is good. But I believe it has notting to do with nudi.

The last zoo I bought from Reborn, I did not do a dip. It also did not open. My first experience with zoo not opening. Tot it is going to die. But dun worry, mine fully open only after 2 weeks. I tink zoo super stress from shipment...

Good luck.

Heard anemone needs strong lighting and lots of care. Will wander pretty much over the place till it finds a comfy spot. Not much experience keeping them but beware of them getting themselves into powerheads...it'll pretty mess up ur tank....

anyone got anemone ? and how do u prevent them from wondering to the powerhead?

Anyway, fyi. Zoos don't really need high flow. Give them moderate flow will bring more food to them. Any zoos that's stress out from shipment should open in 2 days or so. Some even faster, 2 hrs only.

It's a good practice to always FW zoos before placing into your main tank as you wouldn't want any "funny" things to go in and affect the rest.

I got 2 anemones in my 2 footer.. dun have powerhead so never had any problem..

but think as long as u feed them well and keep them happy shldn't be a problem.. mine just stayed put at their locations and open up when lights on

Moreover i had a clown serving both of them in turn so they never move ard lor

i have 2 clowns in my tank now .. one of them is a maroon clown fish .. while the other one is a normal one .. i would really like to have one anemone in my tank .. do u guys think using coras to block the power head might be good ?

In my opinion, I find the zoos from Reborn do tend to have nudis. I used to just transfer them directly into my tank but now, I have learnt my lesson. So I always do a fresh water dip on the zoos.

About the anemone, they are highly intricate and delicate creatures. They are not as easy to keep as many would think.

Do a search in the forum. I have posted a FAQ on them some time back.
