( this is my little guy i have for 2 years now its kinda bleached in the last month, i hope with the new water and hopefully soon the extra lighting this guy will be just as big and brown as it used to be 3x the size its now )




On this picture you see eggs from a perc couple from the display tank of the shop i bought the anemones from. Is their still a chance i can save the eggs ? ( i didnt buy the perc couple because my killer female is swimming around in my little red sea max, and i didnt notice the eggs till now )

More info about this tank, i did a major water change ( i neglected it a bit for the last half year i think thats why my anemone bleached out aswell ) So a 80% water change, new life rock, subbstrate, extra fans and hopefully soon a 150watt HQI lighting, so i can get ride of the stock hood)

But uhm what kind of anemones did i buy lol, btw i will be feeding them silverslides ( im not sure if thats the english word, but they are little silver fish i cut in 3 pieces and feed them, not yet though the tank is only running for few hours now)

If the eggs were on a rock that you just bought (( I can't see them in the pic )) then there is no hope for them.

Was the new "life" rock cycled? Did you keep any of the old rock? If you made all those changes at once I have a feeling that you are going to see another cycle, which won't be good for your anemones.

"But uhm what kind of anemones did i buy lol," which one are you referring too? In those pictures I see 2 different species -- BTA (( E. Quadricolor )) and the really bleached one looks like a type of "Condy"

What are your water parameters -- with numbers.

I kept all my old rock including 40l old water

I know my salt is a bit on the low side its 22 so i need to up that a bit
but 0 nitrate 0 nitrite it looks very good.
Temp is 23/24 ( still stock lighting + extra tunze nano streamer )

My skimmer loves the new rock and is performming really well. ( stockskimmer)

So im very happy, now i hope my bta's will turn beautifull red instad of staying pink

( in the shop they where pink from they day they got them and always stayed pink)

So when shell i feed them all, for the first time

Perhaps im a bit stupid but i even love the algea i have, long green and red leafe like algea. It gives a nice natural look
