An exciting event for a newbie

[wolrey]

Thought I would share something exciting that happened today in my 20L. I started this whole trek into saltwater, by wanting a clown hosting in a BTA. After tons of reading and learning, I fiquired out it would not be as simple as I had hoped. After starting out with fake corals and a hob filter, it has been a long road to live rock and a powerhead. If I had just bumped into TCMAS earlier, I woudn't have fake corals, an extra hob filter, and a extra hood collecting dust.

Today I go to feed my false clown and I noticed him finally hosting in my RBTA! :cool: :wink:

I'm sure this isn't that large of deal to some of the experienced pros out there, but after my clown hosting behind the lip of the hob filter for months, I didn't think he was ever going to come out!

Nice, I know what you mean. When I first started my clown hosted... the heater and not the BTA, that was irritating

Congrats Jeff! Getting your clowns to host can be a very difficult thing. I just lost a bunch of fish in some wierd fungus outbreak in my temporary systems. Both my clowns died, and I am not looking forward to finding another maited pair, and then getting them to host.... In the mean time my poor BTA looks soooo lonely :(
