So how do I keep this sucker OUT of my powerheads? I dripped him, placed him and he just spun and spun, then took a trip up towards my PH. any Ideas?

MY LTA anchors to the bottom of the glass unlike BTA who attach to rocks. My advice would be to dig out some sand and place the LTA in the hole and maybe turn off the PHs if you have other flow in the tank until it attachs. Once mine found a spot if liked it has not moved in two years. Hope that helps some.

If you're worried about having your flow off till he finds a spot, just put some foam over the intakes of your PH's.

make a pantyhose sock to put your powerhead into.

wow... Perfect guys! Thanks! Time to ask Honey if she has any hose... I doubt it.

ah, the things a woman will do w/o for the hobby. :yes:

She had some. I butchered them. Thanks for saving me the anger of wasting the money on a nem. Its a cool creature. Now, it just needs to find a home.

You know it's funny too I almost got rid of those when I was clearing out the closet during the move... looks like it stayed in place all night, yay... and so did Journey... the clownfish will never play in the currents again, will they... lol.. now the question is, will Journey and Marley learn to share! :lightsaber2:

 

[kayakatl]

Wow... I can't believe how protective the fish are over the LTA. Just nuts.

 

[kirru]

and yet again, no picure... how dare you treat me like this lol

 

[kayakatl]

photographer is right here on the couch next to me... You need to be asking miss HoneyB for the pictures... I will try to get one or 2 up tonight. First order of business... feeding the humans in the house!

 

[kayakatl]

Ahhh yes Maroons...they get VERY protective of their nems. Looks great!

Wish they'd share the LTA! Laughs, wishful thinking. I'll try to get some better photo's this week sometime... need to break out the tripod and tinker a bit. Should post the relatively crappy pictures of Journey taking a Journey into the overflow box... haha... still haven't looked to see if they quick pics came out anything less than blurry...
