hate to bust your bubble but I hope you have good filtration and lighting to keep a nem. second a pair of clowns in a 8g is a lil cruel, even if you buy a small ones they do keep growing. just my opinion

I posted to your thread in the Nano forum. Research is a must as I mentioned then. It does not seem as if you have really looked into what it takes to keep a anemone.

If you are considering placing a Nem with clowns in that 8g you are setting your self up for problems. They will not do well in a new tank let alone a 8gallon.

Anemones must have established stable reef systems with strong lighting. I would not even consider placing a nem in a tank that has not run for at least 5-6 months and that is pushing it seeing as I believe a tank really is not established until it hits a year or so. There are ways to getting around this, but for a newbie like your self there is not much you can do to make this work.

Please do not take this as a negative, all to often we get new people on here that seem to be in such a hurry and say they are doing their research and not to long after their tank crashes and they loose everything. We just want to steer you in the right direction. I want to see your nano thrive.

Good Luck on what ever you choose.

After consideration I am going to be putting the anemone in my later tank. It's been established for a while now and the lighting is much better. I too want to see anything I bring in thrive :)
