Hey guys, just rcently got a beautiful pair of onyx perculas for my 175 mixed but sps dominant tank. I would like to have them host a nem and was looking for opinions.
The tank is fairly stocked at this point so a wanderer isn't something I am really after. I have read the stickys, I am looking for folks personel input, suggestions, and expierences.
It is my understanding percs prefer sand dwelling nems? That would be ideal for my tank as well.

I was doing similar research a couple months ago when helping a friend design a tank. I stumbled across this chart which might come in handy.

My snow flakes live with a large long tentacled anemone. They ignored it for more than two years and were happy in some palys. Wish they had stayed in the paly. They are extremely territorial over the anemone. Just my 2 cents.

Gigs and Mags are the only natural symbiants and the best choice for immediate hosting. They may find a different species of nem but equal chance they accept a coral, rock, corner... as their host.
