Allright.. PARAMETERS FIRST:
ALL PARAMETERS HAVE BEEN TESTED BY ME AND LFS (FINTASTIC)
My 55 gallon reef has been setup for 1 year by the 22nd of this month
Weekly 10% water changes, T5HO 6 bulb fixture (the bulbs are 7 months old)
No algae problems at all, 1.024 salinity.
Ok so I bought a green bubble tip anemone yesterday, brought him home and drip acclimated him for 2-3 hours, and put him into my tank (without him leaving water at any point in time, and I set him on the rock I was hoping he would hold onto.powerheads were off overnight.
So he traveled behind the rock where I couldn't see him. So I turned the rock to the front of the tank.. I made sur he had a good grip on the rock.. he's on there pretty well.. so I turned the powerheads on. He was all inflated and bubbly. Well now he is all deflated and his mouth is now open? I've heard that if they do this they are not happy? Is it the powerheaf?
I just want to make sure because I have done everything right so far and hopefully he is just trying to adjust?
