I have a gorgeous bubble tip in my 12gal nano but the thing continually crawls behind the rock work and hides out of site I got it and my percula to kinda be my center piece but he hides how do I coax him into visibility

Change the flow pattern. BTA's like being where water can move across them so they can catch any food that might be in the current. Also pointing an extra power head at it's foot will make it move from where it is and look for a new place.

Aloha Lasse,



This 12 gal was one of my tanks a few years ago. It's my Utah-Hawaii tank with rock and sand from both places. The anemones stayed put. It used only one powerhead (and it's hidden from view Big smile). The flow and wave action is surprising.The positioning of the powerhead makes ALL the difference. It is something I can describe but the full effect is not seen in the pic or the description. Feel free to drop by and see for yourself.

Mahalo,
Mark Hug

Great that he split !!! Now for the bad , you have 2 ! Small tank and they are like Aussies and tend to go walk about  where ever they want and will tend to make home where you don't want them. Fair price I would guess would be $5 - $20 . Won't make ya rich but its a new start on a cool fish..
