Eeek, I just got home and took a look at my light - it's actualy 130w - will check water parameters soon and post.

tank is 35 gal hex... I think it's something around 250 w

The only fish I have are three clowns. I've got the CF, actinic/daylight lighting setup

Off and on - day and night.

Hi Have a purple tip condy. It has been pulling all of it's tentacles into it's foot until it looks like an oblong pink balloon. Has anyone ever heard of this behavior?

Thanks Melosu58, I read that they eat "meaty foods" but I could not find where they specify how often.

I just got one myself and like him very much. He has been stationary since I got him a week ago (after finding the piece of rock he wanted to sit on.) The silly person at th e LFS was selling them from the same tank as the clowns, giving the impression they were good hosts. I was told to feed...

Very interesting... that is almost identical to what is happening with me - same story. EDIT: Nevermind, Fish Stix is my bf.... duh!

It was my understanding that the carpet is the natural host for the percula clown, what would you suggest as a proper host?

LOL, I was wrong - it is definately a condy. So, will there be any problems if I introduce a carpet, bubble or saddle in addition to the condy?

The sebae looks more like it. I'm guessing it won't host a clown either? :cry:

Can multiple clowns host in the same anenome?

Ah... thank you very very much

Actually it has long tentacles (?) rather than bubbly ones. It looks a lot like this... http://www.members.shaw.ca/exoticsealifepix/images/ESP1-PurpleTipAnemone.jpg I've tried to google for the specifc name but can't seem to find what I'm looking for. EDIT: Hmmmm, I guess my answer was in...

I just bought an anenome that is white with little purple tips. Does anyone know what type of anenome this it? Sorry, didn't get a pic before I left for work this morning.
