New Mag from PEA

[MikeyA]

So I just ordered a new Mag from PEA to add to my Nem tank. First let me say that PEA customer service has been excellent, Dr Mac has been very patient and helpful through all my PMs and questions.

So I ordered a green with yellow tip mag from pea on Monday which arrived yesterday. Very well packaged and arrive in the best shape of any Mag I've ever received. Fully inflated with good color, and HUGE (13+") The Mag is doing well in qt, has been inflated the whole time. It'll stay in qt for another 5 days and if it stays this course I'm assuming it will not need antibiotics (which I have on hand if needed). I will update as the week goes on and post pics once it is in the DT.

And the pics

Beautiful mag!

 

[MikeyA]

Thank you, the pics really do not do it justice. The green really pops under blue lighting. Right now it's getting light-med flow and 180 Par. I'm going to raise flow and par slowly everyday till it comes closer to the DT

Current inhabitants of the nem tank, 10" mag, and 11" rainbow haddoni. Still hunting gigs to include though

How will all these fair in the same tank? No warfare concerns?

 

[MikeyA]

I run carbon pretty heavily to keep toxin warfare in down. In previous tanks I've had multiple mags and gigs together without any issue. My one concern is the haddoni but they're sand dwelling so they shouldn't come in contact with any other nems. As well gigs and mags are closely related and usually occupy different zones within the tank (mags always go to the very top, gigs usually stay mid level in the rocks) . The tank is also 200 gallons.

Thank you all. I'm also still hunting my holy grail mag...red foot/yellow tentacles. If anyone knows of one let me know lol

PEA has some really nice Purple Mag for sale right now.
This one I got from them a little over a year ago

 

[MikeyA]

That's beautiful! I'm going to add a purple mag later. I was told by a little birdie that pea has another order is coming in next week but unsure what nems will be in the order

Looks great to have just shipped! Best of luck with it.

Update: he's now in the DT and settling in. Odd how just adding him to the lower section of my tank changed the flow through the tank. But he's doing great so far. The pics really don't do him justice. He's a bright/metallic green. I'm watching him to see where he'll go out when he decides to climb up on the pillar next to him.

Beautiful! Looks to be in great shape.
