so my nems have been great for a few weeks now actually had colours I didn’t even know existed on them anyhow I went away for a weekend 2 weeks ago and came home and nem was hosting my clowns all was great, until this week they will not come out, even while closed the clowns are still annoying it? Think it’s just the clowns or is something else at play here? Parameters are as follows:

Salinity-1.026
Temp-25.5
Ammonia-0
Nitrites-0
Nitrates-5/10
Phosphate-0.03-0.05
Alk-8.0
Cal-430

Anemone's can be like that at first. Mine at first really did not like anything but a thin slice of table shrimp every other day. I stop feeding them when the anemone started getting bit and now the clowns make sure the anemone is feed.

Might be the clowns annoying it if its too small but like jsker says they are weird like that. I got mine first week was fine then was closed for about 3 weeks if not more. Thought he was a goner. Now hes back fully opened. Keep stable and nice flow
