Colorado Sunburst

[Tom Gates]

Hi I have about a 18” Colorado Sunburst. He has been in my 300 gal. tank for about one year. I run 4 radion 30 pros. Once or twice a week as the lights start to ramp down my anemone will shrink. I feed plenty of meaty frozen food for the animals. Is that normal?
Appreciate any thoughts

Thank you, and I will get them as soon as possible.

I have some coral. But I also love fish. I have two Cuban Basset’s and I could probably feed them by hand. Same as three spotted blotches to name a few. This tank has been very much a joy for me and all my guests that come to the house. I will try to figure out how to send pictures. ( not very good at it) but if I have a problem I will have my tank maintenance company help me to send pics.
Regards,
Tom

Welcome - you’ll love this community!

I have a few CSBs and ChSBs and that’s completely normal.

Care to share a few pics of this 18” beauty?

Yes I actually have 11 clowns in my tank. But four of the largest keep the rest of them away until the lights dim and they all swim into the neck of the anemone. Awesome to watch!!!

hope that these pictures show up. If not please let me know. Have a great day.

Also don’t have many corals yet.
Actually I lost thousands of dollars of corals. Many I bought from WWC and BBC high end corals. But do to a problem in my water I lost them. But believe you learn fast.
But it is still such a joy having the tank!

I had him in the back corner but he moved to the front. I call him my little ham ( lol)
