With the new lights he might be moving to find a new spot. Just let him do his thing

Lol bta can be very stressful. I have had a few move to the worst possible spots. With yours, you are trying to revive him so there is going to be some movement. It's a good thing though! Bta just dont give a **** lol

Back at it

Give it a couple of days. If that clown is hosting it, and it doesn’t move, it probably found a place it likes. Good move on the lights.

Should I start trying to direct feed it?

The anemone looks to be recovering slowly. Unless you're feeding it more light, do not feed it. Wait it out till the color comes back which may take weeks. Good luck

Agreed! Nems can live with just light. A healthy nem might gain some more vibrant colors or grow faster from feeding but absolutely not necessary. Also if your clown is hosting it that will substitute the feedings as well. You're on the right path muh dude!

< black box here.

ime that nem with the intestines / webbing will not live. but your 2nd pic it looks better .. bleached to a degree however.

my nems love the light and have split, walked around and found a spot on the highest rock closest to the surface, higher than my sps, and closest to the center of my tank for maximum light.

I have had nems that did not want to recover either. yours looks like it can go either way at this point. wysiwyg -- get a colorful and full looking one next time.

oh, your latest pic, a hosted nem ime will likely recover and move to the best spot in time! good luck

Not centered under the tv yet but here is the final setup

Nice set up love the light set up

My Nem I think is getting ready to split again. He has moved away from his happy place to darker area with no change in lighting, and gotten small. Last time he split he went under a shelf and got small for 2 days and split. This time he move to the front corner of the tank so hopefully we get to see this wonderful Mitosis happen for real.

I’m running the same light at the moment on my 36 bow front but I have a long tentacle nem he’s been doing great. Also have a green toadstool leather also doing great. Are you running the light on one of the preset’s
