I should have a RBTA coming in to night sure hope it looks this good.

On a side note I have a black and white clown spawning with a orange and white but they are hosting my goneopora (sp) and I want them in a Nem if I put my RBTA where the Goneopora is, will there be a chance of them hosting it. I am planning to put the goneopora in my sump for a few weeks to try to keep them away or will they go back to it when I put it back.....

It all depends on the type of clowns and the anemone. I wouldn't worry too much about putting your RBTA in a particular place because it may move to another spot that is better suited for what it wants. No easy way to determine that before you try it, just make sure your powerheads are covered. Since your clowns are already hosting the goni I bet if you take it out and put the anemone in there they will take to it once they figure out where it is.

Good luck and keep the pics coming

update and a question

I have had this Nem for 6 days and it is all over the place....... it has not found any area it likes and is starting to drive me nuts I just placed it in the location below hoping it will find the sand and dig. Here are some pics and now his foot is up mouth down in the sand and I don't know what to do... Do I need to place a bowl over it for the night or just turn off my powerheads tonight so it wont get blown around.. I just dont know
