Hi all!
Im new to this site and am hoping to get help with my current problem. My boyfriend purchased a carpet anemone for our tank raised maroone clown ih hopes that he'd make it his home. However I think I killed it. The anemone that is. I thought the light was on a timer and it's actually been off all week since we bought it last Sunday.
Tank specs
55 gallon
Set up Sept. 2009
canister filtration system
10,000 Kw daylight bulb it looks like a double tube...and another bulb like it but its a blueish light---sorry not technical...he runs this tank and has been gone so i am trying to keep it alive....
have no idea the temp because we dont have a thermometer.
no idea the rest of the stuff either...salinity, nitrite...etc
Im clueless but want this carpet anemone to survive my ignorance...please help.
I turned on the light when I came home and saw it all limp and it kinda came back but how when I turn it off it just goes limp again...
I moved him up closer to the light but don't know if that helps or will make it worse. I'm worried that if I leave the light on I will create and algae problem and that if the anemone does die it will cause bad side effects...
