    LOL

    i wonder if the reason he's been hiding is not so much the clowns pestering him but maybe that he is relishing a nice tasty peppermint flavored dinner?

    if memory serves, the RBTA is capable of catching shrimp.. unless the peppermint is just plain immune to the RBTA's toxin (which i would tend to doubt since they come from two different oceans) i have to think it is capable.

    heck, if it did nab a peppermint and you haven't been feeding it, it may just decide that after that tasty meal it's time to split. that would be awesome becasue that is a gorgeous rbta.

    i have never felt a sticky anemone unless it was engaging a feeding response, and i have touched a few RBTa's, both clones and wild caught.

    well, I always fed mine little shrimps from a bag it sucked them down with relish... i never did stuff as small as a mysis.

    Why not buy an Eheim autofeeder and just put it on the tank?

    IMHO, most fish (and corals for that matter) need some kind of food put into the tank.

    If I need a ton of nutrients in the tank I'll just put some sand in the bottom.
    LOL

    seriously josh, you gotta put more into the tank than light. there is no way to achieve a self sustaining eco system on that scale, there are to many forces working against you...

    what i think your probably looking for is a vastly reduced feeding regimin.

    noting crazy about adding a carbon source to your water... whether vodka is the right choice... well i don't know... coral booster from cb pets works fine for me.
