is it dead?

Update for this morning. Nem didn't move last night, his mouth seems to be closing up.

Could I get the guys name who sold you this
Nems stress a lot during shipping but come back quickly once in the tank. I'd keep drip acclimating to a minimum -- as ammonia burn for anemones can happen like it can for fish once the bag is open.
 
@Lance M. Hey man, thanks for the offer. I'm glad to get to know more people from the area. So far my only local contacts are the fine people down at Tide Line. I read Amoo's post on taking care of a nem in a HT, and realized i won't need to pull any rock from my sump as well. I also have a lot of rock curing in the garage.

Np. I've frequented Tideline for ~12 years so I know Chris, Shawn, etc. I went to middle school with Ray. I go in every now and then to check it out. Picked up some nice red mushrooms about a week or two ago. JoeKnowsReefs is also local to us off Rivers and he normally has a good coral selection. I have never met him though since I usually only go in on Saturdays if I had to go in to work and catch it on my way home.

I had no clue there was a second saltwater store in charleston... I'm definitely gonna have to check Joe's out. How long have you been in the hobby?

~11 yrs with reef tanks, a couple more of fw planted. I just have a 40B w/ 40B sump mixed reef set up now, with 4 bta's. In the future, I plan on setting up a larger peninsula style tank and converting my 54 corner from fw to probably a carpet tank. With the 54 corner, one 250 MH should do the trick. I've always wanted a carpet but have not had one due to my yellow watchman pair.

I've actually always wanted a Haddoni, but won't have one because I tend to like my fish in general :P

I'm only have haddoni for a month and I can confirm it's a predator with a bottomless stomach lol, you would shock how fast it pull a food or anything that touch its tentacle...less than 3 seconds and its prey/food would disappear, even a floating frozen mysis shrimp landed on it, its tentacle responded instantly :P
 
Set up another tank ;Cat

Dude I've thought about doing a Haddoni isotope tank so many times it's not even funny, but know me well enough to know I'd just end up dumping a mag in it instead :P

Sounds like you have a plan. Strong flow up top and low flow bottom. Looking for your build thread now.
 
Hey more SC reefers!!! We really need to get more active on the SC thread.... Good luck with the nem, it's a beaut. @Amoo helped me with my rainbow bta when it was looking sickly. It's doing much better now, actually starting to see some bubbles in the tips again. Where did you get this nem from? Someone local?

I also saw somebody scored a new eel...

Yea dude let me tell you... you know about what happened with my first eel. Crushed me. Well I talked to my fiancee and the eel was her favorite too, so she said we had to get another one when we do the 90 cube in the living room. Then the whole Hawaii legislation happened, and I saw Zoacollector's post... I explained to her about the whole Hawaii thing and she said "Get one now!" Normally she's all like "You better not spend that much money!"

Yeah I thought of you when I first saw his post go up, but knew you were waiting, was hoping you'd grab one anyways. Make sure those lids are tight :P
 
Oh I have a lid. Trust me, learned my lesson. No more eel tanks without screen tops.

Lol with the party happening in my tank right now with the new tang and 2 Sailfins I'm thinking about changing out my top for a steel cage. There's definitely a WWE title on the line in there right now.

That's what I have on the eel's tank. It's a heavy painted metal screen for reptiles. My fish all get along right now. They are in the 40B, pair of black ocelaris, Atlantic blue and lieutenant tang(originally planned for a 160g once they grew, will give them to a good home now) and a six line. I'll get a white tail bristletooth and maybe a yellow eye kole instead. I've recently gotten interested in leopard wrasses too, and I'd like to keep a pair once I get the new tank, but I know the six line would go nuclear.
