castiel Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Great tank! Hadn't spotted before, but now subscribed. Link to comment
MarvinsReef Posted July 29, 2012 Author Share Posted July 29, 2012 Can't believe it.... It's already Week 35 since I converted the tank from a "reef" tank to a "clownfish/anemone" tank. The clowns will be turning 11 months old (8 months in my care) in a few days. It's been fun so far besides a few heartaches and hick ups. My family and I really enjoy this set up much more, especially my boys. They like their "Nemo" tank.

awpong Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Amazing! I'm trying to convert my 40B into an anemone tank too... but I've still got to purchase/wait for mine to split a lot before my tank looks like yours. I've gone from 2 to 4, but you look like you've got more than a dozen o.O Link to comment

I've gone from 2 to 4, but you look like you've got more than a dozen o.O currently, there are 14 BTA's being hosted by the clowns. they range from 4"-8". Good luck with your anemone tank.

gabe3eb Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Doing my once every 3-year checkin on this post . Seriously though, species tanks are often cool ideas but rarely executed successfully. You have truly nailed this one though. So cool. Bravo! Link to comment

animalmaster6 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Dang that tank is awesome! I'm really liking it! It must be a blast to watch in person. Link to comment
doppelganger Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I'm still in awe every time I see ur tank. Few questions for you since you've gone through such a huge transition. How would you rate the maintenance vs your previous tank? I would imagine feeding is probably more important but what about water changes and stuff? What do you feed? Also, given the size of your BTA's, do you think this could be done successfully in a nano? Lets say over 20G but under 50G? Or do you think the limited volume would pose a problem. Obviously not with the amount the livestock you have in there Would you consider this species only tank "easier" or "harder" vs a mixed reef? I would imagine you wouldn't have to worry as much if they moved around and stuff. I really have no experience with BTA's so just wanted to get your thoughts. Sorry if u answered these questions before. Again, beautiful tank! Link to comment
