The Orange skunks are adding some nice activity right in the front of the reef. These pictures are a little bigger than usual, so I'm attaching them as thumbnails. Click on them for the bigger version.
I bet they are so fun to watch. Can you see any personalties forming?
They seem to be okay overall, but there are hints of territorial issues amongst themselves. I've never kept more than pairs of clowns, so this is new to me.
Wonderful idea of choosing the nem with a big group of clowns that will host it. Watching 2 clowns host a nem like the typical setup is great, but having 16 host a nem is is much more fun and interesting, and borderline genius. When I upgrade to a large enough system (still a few years from now when we move) I'd love to try what you've done here. The only concern I can think of is somehow getting the nem to plant itself in an area where I can have a good view where it won't bother corals, and having it stay there.
Yes, that is the challenge. That anemone was in the back of the tank and crawled around to that spot in the front. I like it where it is - hope it stays there.
