I'm sorry just 5 more questions (zebra moray)
1. My 55 gallon tank is part undergravel filter. If I put the carpet anemone
in that tank and he goes to stick himself through the crushed coral looking
for the glass will he get messed up. <Maybe... if it were mine, I'd place this anemone in a glass dish of fine substrate of its own and place this whole structure on top of the undergravel filter>
2. Can a carpet anemone be happy in a crushed coral bottom tank. Should I
try to stick him on top of some rocks even though he is bigger than any rock <Only the organism itself can "answer" this by its behavior... give it the chance to "decide" on its own... by placing it as stated above... maybe with a piece of rock above, under the fine substrate in "its" dish>
I have just about.
3.Should I wait a little while before I try to move the Zebra moray eel so he
doesn't get way stressed out. <Not probably a big deal... these are animals of habit... move its surroundings to the new system, provide the same feeding, care routines... and it won't "notice" the move... do scoop the fish out in a sturdy (doubled) plastic bag... rather than netting it>
4.Should I try to feed him before I move him <No>
5.You think he would eat my cleaner shrimp. My lion fish wont and neither
did my scorpion fish
<Without a doubt, yes... only a matter of (short) time.>

Re: Am sorry just 5 more questions (zebra moray)
excellent! Thanks for all the tips. I am really hesitant about this swap but
I know in the long run it will all be worth it. I got my eel to eat for the
first time today. I was so happy I fed him a big ol piece of shrimp on a
stick. he really liked it. Again thanks and I will let you know how it goes.
thanks,
David Myers
