well yesterday i had a little acciddent with my green bta that i had sold

we removed most of the rock in the tank when chriss came to collect the tang and the nem was attached over 2 large rocks whilst i move a rock near it one of the rocks i must have nocked the other one attached to the nem and it toubled and fell to the ground which split the nems foot and i could see the prawn that i gave him about 30 mins befor

i spoke to a freind of mine who has had a lot of experiance with the nems and he advised me to put it in a qt tank and pull the rocks apart this will force it to split so by thursday i may have 2 nems not 1

even tho he was split he never deflated the tips which chriss said was a good sign so i thought i woud add a pic of it

here it is now looks like it has nearly parted but what do you think

[chriss]

It seems to be holding up pretty well, I would have expected it to have taken a turn for the worse by now. Fingers crossed for you!

hi karl
i saw it today chris and seems fine, very lucky i reckon
tilly

[karl]

just holding together by a little strand at the mo so come tomorrow it should be 2 lol

[karl]

well they split sometime last night so i have 2 nems 1 little and 1 large lol







i moved the rocks apart by using my metal scraper handle as i didnt want to put my hand in their as i have been painting when they had already spit thinking it is best to keep them apart is this the case ???

[ben]

i wouldnt worry about keeping them apart, just leave them to settle on their own from now on.

just keep the water quality up to scratch and they should be fine

[chriss]

Excellent news!

I'm glad it worked out ok, you've got two to sell now!! I'd love an anemone, but anemones, sps and a tank full of seios doesn't really mix well, well it does, kind of like a blender!

How did you get on shifting the rest of the fish? Don't forget to update your for-sale thread and when is d-day?

Chris

[karl]

it is updated lol the lot has gone

and have a few buyers for the new nem so i will go with the closest person to me to give it the best chance of survival instead of posting

moving the 28th feb to manchester and looking at a pico when i get their untill i can start to build the new tank

I did exactly the same thing the beginning of the month but I lost mine.

Shame you're not already in Manchester as I would be interested in taking the smaller one off you, as I'm only 25 miles from Manchester, but I don't fancy it's chances coming all the way from Cornwall.
