Okay just added gigs and some mags to this tank and others there are: 4 magnificas, 2 gigs, 1 jimmy Hendrix bubble tip, a long tentacle anemone and a haddoni anemone. This is going to be an awesome experiment!

Have you had any problems with them getting on so far ? Sounds good . Have you seen Melevs reef Nem tank ? Not sure how current it is now but inspired me.

Are you running carbon? Anything else? Looks great and jealous that you have access to the amounts of nems that you do!

Nice nems. What size is that tank? Seems a big small for such large fish that require 200+gallons to make it in the long run.

Nice. I have been wanting a gig for a while. Currently I have BTS, LTA, maxi mini, rock and tube anemones in my tank. Hope to add a gig or maybe settle for haddoni.

This is just the largest tank I have since my 300 gallon sprung a leak it's a 150 custom with over 400 gallons of water volume to keep them steady in the mean time :)

Awesome I hope you find a nice one just make sure you have a qt tank and cipro ready to treat him for a week before you add him with the rest of the anemones :)

That's funny and just give them a spot with everything they like if it's a haddons give him a deep sand bed 5+ inches and medium flow just enough to blow the sand and excretions off his disk and give him strong light and he should stay put I've never had a problem with moving anemones just have to give them what they want and they should stay put :)

My LTA walks everywhere. I think it chases the clowns rather than the other way. Silly thing. I made a great place for it and it still moved. He has been in the same place for three whole days. Maybe it is right now. :)

I hope to find a good one too. I will have qt and cipro all ready for it.
