Carpet Bleach & PIX

The brown carpet i got 2 weeks ago from SUBADUDE is finally coming out. It was hiding for about a week in the 120, but now its out. It looks like it bleached out a bit. I hope it will do well now that its out in the light.
Ill try and start feeding soon. The other bleached Anemone i got a few months ago is coloring up well and eating.

You think the carpet will kill him?
I have had him for over two years...ill pull the carpet if I have to.
I have had no one MIA as of now, with the carpet in for a week.

carpets really should be in a dedicated tank with clowns or no fish and very little coral that you actually care about. The biggest problem they cause though is eating your fish and inverts.

If you need a place for that mandarin, my tank has permanent openings

I've heard stories

Also, even if the Mandarin was to just get stung and be able to swim away, I believe (and someone correct me if I'm wrong

) that the Mandarin might have the capability to introduce some type of toxin into the tank if it were to swim off and die in the corner of the tank. I know that this is true for some of those cool little boxfish you see at SF once in a while. Mandarins are so beautiful, but they tend to be a bit slow in the swimming department.
