Purchased the approximately 3 months ago, has been having chemical warfare with a rainbow BTA in my system. Approximately 2 inches in diameter, eats, still has beautiful color, but my other tank is not stable enough for it just yet. Would like to rehome it ASAP. Prior to it shrinking a bit, it was approx 4 inches wide, just isn’t happy with the other nem in the tank. Other nem is beautifully healthy. Willing to answer any questions.
Porch P/u or local meet only

SE MICH / TOLEDO AREA

How much are you selling the nem for?

I’m asking for 200. But I would rather get rid of it then let it continue to get attacked by my other nem.
 
A bit too far away from Cleveland..... Have yoi thought about taking it to a local shop?

Thought about it. Not really many LFS nearby with inverts/corals. I’d rather see it go to a home.

Also, Bump $150
 
U run carbon ?
Carbon usually chills them out from chem warfare
 
Bump. $ 125....
 
I'm curious as to what makes you think they are attacking each other I have a neM farm tank with a variety of different types and have never had such an issue. If it's shrinking its most likely something with your parameters

It’s the only thing I could conclude since I have Other Nems I the same tank thriving. All parameters are stable and have been.
 
it could also be because it did not acclimate to the lights well. Might wanna try turning them down see how it responds. Remember the Black widow is a Blackfoot. Just like corals different types need different lighting and they need a light acclimate period.

Yea I did a two week acclimation on my kessils. It hasn’t moved off of its original spot. Which is why I don’t understand. If it was a light / flow issue I’d imagine it would just move to a different spot. But it doesn’t.. thoughts?
