No. I have agreed to sell a couple locally, just don't want to get into shipping just yet.

How is the project coming along?

I am in the long process of finding a couple of different BTA
and
I need some help figuring out which two / three that I want to put in my tanks.
So, I thought a Eye Candy / Show Off Thread
Was in order.

So, if you would.

How do you get them out of your tank?

Was slowed down when I lost one strain, about 12 nems. I thought it was the system, but it turns out that stain just dies in the tub! I got one more from that mother and it lasted 10 days. The rest are good, I just need to get chopping. The problem now is all the stressed SPS corals I'm babysitting, I don't want to kill them by cutting up a bunch of nems.

They are in floating baskets. I just run A fingernail under the foot and they pop out easily.

Some amazing nem's in here! I've had mine for about 6 months. In the first 3 weeks it split 4 times while moving and trying to adapt. My anemone managed to kill an Acro, severely hurt 2 acans and both my blasto colonies in the first month while it moved and moved and moved trying to find a home. It finally settled and seems to stay put as long as I give it a silverside about every 7-10 days. I purchased it with two little dwarf clowns Mortimer and Milo, both of which are doing great!
I think my nem would like a little more light based on it's position and resting place but I got what I got for now.

By the way Both Acan's and Blasto's are recovering well and growing as quickly as ever. I just had to protect/shield them for a few weeks and fed them like crazy. All is well now and eveyone's getting along.
