How old is your tank and what are you using to light it?

I am not sure about your lighting, it may work depending on the size of your tank. I would recommend metal halides or LEDs with an anemone, but I am sure there are people who have had success with T5s

After looking at your photos again your hand looks really big in that picture. What size tank do you have?

That is possibly the smallest nem I have ever seen. Should be fine in terms of most info you provided...just keep an eye on it. Size has sent up a warning flag for me.

Ya my nem is now under taotronics but it was under the pc light and .5w led for a couple months and looks/acts the exact same now and then. You'll be just fine it's not an exact science in anything I've found out.

I give my nem raw shrimp now and then but ive heard of people not doing anything with them and they do just fine. Just make sure he doesn't get into powerheads or anything like that! Goodluck!

Remember not all btas bubble up. It took mine awhile to adjust, about a week. If it doesn't find a spit and open up then move it if possible. Its how I ended up having to flip a rock for the one, while the other just did fine on its own. Both of mine are under over hands and lean out into the light.
