He didn't stay though by morning he was on the overflow yesterday when I got home he was half sucked in the overflow and half out I moved some rock so he has a center perch near the top and so far he's staying I fed him soon after to get him back to normal def a hardy fellow wasn't easy gettin him from the overflow lol. Another cool thing is I have some old bio balls just a couple there for my puffer to nose at and one day my anemone had them all stuck to him

Well, this magnificent guy is now having room and board supplied by myself here (sorry for the poor pic):



And, as I have been told, he is a true sun worshiper. Took him only three hours, but as soon as the metal halide went on, he started heading that way....and he has been hanging out right underneath it, basking in the glow, fully extended foot, and even extending his tentacles away from the overflow into the current. Lovely colour, and had a nice shrimp meal last night courtesy of his man-servant.

So my question is....if others have had him and the only place he likes to hang out is up top near the lights....is there any reason for me to even bother to think of moving him?

If it's happy where it is and not trying to go down the OF or trying to travel all over the tank I would just leave it where it has landed.

hahaha wow thought id never see this thread again lol yeah good luck trying to keep him anywhere anyways lol in all honesty ive had it in a 180g reef and a 110g mixed reef and no matter where i cleared out a spot he always moved.......its always seemed to stay away from powerheads but i did have to scrape him from my overflows fingers once...not pretty...thought for sure he was a goner but its a very hardy nem but i always figured better my glass then my corals....


glad you enjoy it , its the same nem as the one in the display at west edmonton mall, and will be as big im sure cheers buddy on the nice catch!!
