Tenecor 5.6 Nem Tank!

[tbrown]

Nems were looking a little irritated - turns out the temp is sitting at 82 degrees. I need to figure out a fan for this little tank. If I add a clown, I might need the lid.

 

[tbrown]

So question for those in the know:

Nems all moved to the back of the rockwork (like Nems have a tendency to do). Should I increase the flow, decrease the flow, increase the light, or - more likely - decrease the light?

Also, it's time to start shopping for a Clownfish and either a Hector's Goby or Court Jester.

Yes.

I don't really think there is a single correct answer. My first thought would be to increase flow. If you can, aim your return right at the back side to essentially push them forward.

Yes.

That's my thought... Nems gonna Nem.

I don't actually have a return on this. It's an AIO and the bulkhead was the wrong one so I just put a screen cover over it. I can turn up the flow and get an RFG and a 90.

Dirty glass (ok, ok... Acrylic)

All 3 Nems are moving which is good I suppose. The Black Porcelain Anemone Crab is with the group of 2.

Caught and transferred some amphipods from the other tank. Also found another baby Joker I'm trying to Nem Cannon currently.

Nassarius snail eggs hatched. Not sure if they'll survive. No fish yet so maybe. It's crazy, I can see their snorkels even as little dots on the acrylic.

Seems like a very exciting story for someone who is a lover of CUC.

Also of note: the baby Joker Nems is halfway up the Nem Cannon. Working his way towards the Tenecor!

Itty Bitty! Smaller than a Canadian Dime.

So SMOL!

Spaghetti worm for scale since no banana for scale available:

I think we've got a chance!

I entered a raffle for a pair of Platinum Storm clowns yesterday but I didn't win. Oh well, I guess I'll keep watching for something fun.

 

[tbrown]

Well... If you don't follow my other thread, this got more or less ended and transferred to the sump of the 70. Seems to be making the Nems happier.

However, I said it was going to be a Nem tank so... I planted about 100 Aiptasia Anemones. I caught 10 or so Berghia from my other other tank. @tharbin may need them so in an effort to keep them alive and fed, solution!

 

[tbrown]

This tank has a severe case of the uglies. It's not getting enough phosphates would be my guess. It's still just plugging along though. Occasionally I see a Berghia crawling around.

@tharbin we're going to try to go to the soap store over in Tempe tomorrow morning at some point. Do you want me to see if I can grab a couple of Berghia and try to meet up? If not, I'll keep them running. Still plenty of food for them.

 

[Mschmidt]

I e got some phos if you want.

I forgot to mention: this is going to house Joker BTA Anemones. I'll probably get a clownfish and maybe a small Goby.

Hector's Goby or Court Jester would be nice.

Too small imo, maybe a little Trimma?
