Very cool thread. I'm thinking of starting a BTA-only tank, from my previous experience I'm concerned about two things:

- lighting: what par do you keep? I kept mine in around 200-300 par, but i've heard (and habitat studies have said) that 100-200 will work?

- what kind of rockwork do you use to keep the anemone from floating about? :D Again IME, they need a small cave-thing for their foot.

I've seen this thread many times, and still click through when I see it pop back up.

Did you ever say what sort of PAR you run in this tank?

No clue on my par, but have 2 kessil 360s over a 90g and they get up to 95% during the light cycle. Some nems are just under them, some lower in tank.

So I’ve seen a lot of people post pics with nem mixing but I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone have two species of clownfish like you have in this tank! (Post 113)

Looks like an ocellaris and a gold stripe maroon?
