2 years of my sebea and after I introduced new clown after QT. help

[Sir Chris]

so it's been a day and a 1/2 and it won't fully inflate and has now seems like it is worse. 1 pic was 2 weeks ago. 2nd pic is now. My nitrates r 10 ppm but there always been there as I'm HOB and over stocked now transferring 2 a 75g. I've never witnessed it like this during day lights night sometimes. But this is now continually on. Has tacky tents so here not slimy and does inflate some tents. But stays in this form goin on 2 days now. Fed last night and ate all of the mysis. I'm used 2 my BTA doing this but never my sebea. Any people hat raised them just give me a heads up if it's a normal cycle since new clown is in.

 

[Sir Chris]

It's basically the dice of a small plate. And now is he size of 1/2 my palm. So I'm freakn lfs said wait and water change a good amount. So mixing salt now

following. I have my RBTA doing that but it never went beyond 2 days

 

[Sir Chris]

Well here's an update after I cupped it with one of my nem container so clowns can't host it

 

[FDAWG]

Nice color. I see these guys bleached all the time at our LFS.

 

[Sir Chris]

Big diff. The 2nd clown was wearing it out and this is my DIY keep away. And worked perfect. Gave it time 2 recover from 2 on it vs just her

 

[Sir Chris]

I will b giving it a health feeding tho incase it expelled anything it had as a reflex as they do when feeling threatened. Didn't see anything near its mouth all day like do with BTA when it deflates

 

[Sir Chris]

Ya. It took me a month 2 bring it back. But I know had 2 bring things back. My parents say I have a gift clearly as well as my lfs. They give me things that they think r dying just 2 see if I can. And I do

 

[Sir Chris]

And it was bleached. I don't think there's a sebea u can get that hasn't lost its zooanthlal from stress and all so if u want a sebea u gotta do a lot of research and have a salt thumb

 

[Sir Chris]

Today. Still goin through odd cycles. Lights been on only an hour and 1/2 and 10ks just turned 10 mins ago but I'm Headn 2 work. Checked my nitrates 10ppm and that's low for my tank. As I'm over stocked on sps so I'm feeding very carefully was at 80 usally but never had problems so let it ride till I started collecting sps for the tank change and straining my frozens vs using them just thawed in tank water and can see the diff when I squirt them out the cloud that used 2 come with them is less to non as that's all useless nitrites.

Hello nem savior. Please help me. I have introduced a bright orange nem that did really well for 4 weeks, then started to get smaller after the nem next to it got smaller. Next thing I know, the nem next to it is larger, but my orange nem is still small. Any advice?

 

[Sir Chris]

So an update on my gem. Just took it now. So was an odd cycling on it. But has been like this for 3 days.

Well that's a bubble tip. Mine would stay still but that's cause I know alittle what a nem is lookn for in terms I'm lighting and flow. So he's stayed put. I just got a new bta 2day and will find out. The store had no name as it rightly wouldn't but said it's labeled a green. But the green is very light and looks like snow has fallen atop it. But they'll his and stretch out there tents noodle out vs bubble and deflate for a day and re inflate like my sebea just went through. Only diff is there's is a lot shorter and sebeas are longer. So if he doesn't putt back up a day later then something should b looked at 1st being a 20% water change

 

[Sir Chris]

What it looked like in background

 

[Sir Chris]

New addition

 

[Sir Chris]

Introduced.

 

[Sir Chris]

What sebea looked like when it came into my hands

 

[Sir Chris]

Ok on top is a frog spawn. I was like isn't a sebea maybe a gigantica and that other green Ian almost doesn't look bta but btas are odd. Mine never has deflated tents hat long

 

[Frosty Latte]

Cool looking nems!
