Alright... I've completely talked myself into having a clown/nem only tank. The tank will be a 30 gallon. I dont want to be torched, so I will say this first. My dad has kept Carpets and BTA's in the past. So I have someone who can immediately tell if somethings wrong (I could ask him about all of these questions but wont hurt to know from you all). I also do know not to add any nems till the tank is atleast 4 months old. With that said, please help me out with these questions...
1. I want to know what lights I need to be getting for nems
2. Are the selected nems compatible with the fish I will be getting?
3. What are my CUC restricted to with a nem?
4. How to acclimate the nem when I do get it?
Fish: There will only ever be 2 fish in this tank. Either a pair of clarkiis/maroons/tomatoes.
Nems that I'm interested in: Corkscrew; Carpets (please tell me which carpet I should prefer and how to tell them easily); Magnificent
Lights: I need yall to help me out here... On hand I have a FW light that I dont know what the ratings are. Mainly give off whites. (FYI I knowI shouldnt use this). I did ask pops about the lighting but he says there will be different lights now from what they had 10+ years ago; makes sense tbh...
So please do help me out with this... TIA
