Dear Reef 2 Reef community,
I currently own a mixed reef, in which i do not dare to add an anemone. I still have a freshwater tank running, which is a 60x30x36 cm tank and i have a spare Kessil A160 tuna blue and some spare powersheads + cannister filter which runs the current freshwater tank. I was wondering If it is possible to convert this to a dedicated clown fish tank, with one pair of clownfish, and BTA anenome and maybe some rock flower anenomes.
Trouble some points for me.
- tank does not have an auto topoff, would this be recommended?
- tank does not have a skimmer, is this needed to keep just anenomes? Or would doing weekly water changes be enough?
- Do anenomes consumes Kh and such as regular corals? Or do they survive based on food, just like fish? As i understand the clown fish normally bring food to the anenome in trade for it's protection?
Kind regards,
Christian
