Hey all!
Added a BTA a couple days ago to my fluval evo, making it my dedicated anemone tank. (Plan on moving it to my 75g when I upgrade my dt).
He's been doing really great so far, he tends to get way smaller at night when I change the light over to blue (I do this around 6pm).
I added my clowns in after it settled on its spot, and they took a liking to each other, woot! So I thought I'd share a video of the magical happenings
Now my question is:
As you can see, my anem is suuuper stretched up. I assume he is reaching for light, would I be correct in that?
I did a lot of research- I read from people who used the stock light in their fluval for their BTA and it was perfect. I was afraid to upgrade and have the light be too strong, I have 2 blade grows on my DT and they just seem aggressive for a tank that short. Should I upgrade the light to a blade grow? Or is he fine and I'm rocking the boat when I shouldn't.
He's so puffy and happy to my limited experience, but I don't want to risk a big issue down the line, I'm so attached already.
Any advice super appreciated,
thanks guys!
