New addition to the tank. Adult clown has never seen one before and is destroying him. It creeped itself under a little arch.. think he's good or should I call the rescue squad ?

Leave him be :face-with-tears-of-joy: Looks happy and unless the rock fell on him, it will be able to unstick itself if it wants to. BTAs like to anchor into deep crevices so that may be what it is trying to do.
 
Agreed. The nems I've introduced go through a week or 2 of kind of feelings things out. Unless dying don't ever go in after them.
 
Great, thanks guys. I fed the tank well before I introduced it. How long should I wait to feed the tank again? 48hrs?

Anemone don't need food. Just good parameters and lighting. I only feed mine what ever they catch and they're huge.

Yup. And how long would you wait to feed, after introducing a new bta?
 
Just fyi, the nem looks mostly bleached, so you may need to feed it a bit more often for a few months. Just give it small amounts of whatever you feed your fish a few times a week until it starts to get its color back.
