so I'm asking on another thread, but they suggested I post here.. I'm new... so here it goes.
I have an unknown anemone that has possibly been pointed out as a bubble tip. It was sold to me like it is now a few weeks ago as a bulb anemone. No other information, no color or specifics.. I thought it to be strange, but it wasn't the usual guy that I deal with and trust (yes I know only to deal with the guy I should have now).. anyway.. those who have seen the picture so far have said severely bleached bubble tip.. he seems to be eating well now (didn't for the first 10 days at all.. I waited the first week, and it ignored food until I tried again on day 10.). I'm curious on what I can do to nurse it back to health. Specifics.. I'm also wondering if I should add any supplement to the tank as far as plankton or any vitamins? I can pick stuff up tomorrow. He's eating silverside chunks. maybe a 1/4" cut piece two days in a row now.
click here --> link to my other thread below so that I'm not to post the same picture all over the place.
I posted my tank stats below also.. If I leave anything out or you need more info please let me know asap.
Thanks for the help or suggestions in advance!
