Anyone had any luck with rock flower nems? I’m on my 3rd one I picked up at lfs. Had one in my nano tank and had no probs. My 20g Red Sea they just attached then deattach and float around til the die.

My friend Ron @Ron Reefman has tremendous success with them. Maybe he can chime in and offer some guidance.

What are your water parameters like? I've had several and found them to never move once they found a spot.

I have had good success with them, but I have had some move into the rockwork and die. But once they find their happy place they typically don’t move, even if getting actively stung.

I’ve got 30 of them. Just broadcast feed and that’s it. Sometimes I may target.

Ive had 1 for almost 10 years before selling and others for a while now too. I have found them to be extremely hardy. I wonder if you got sick or dying specimines or you have something going on with your water or they dont get enough food. They can tolerate really high and pretty low light levels but usual move to find their perfered lighting.
