Hey guys! Been ages since I've last visited.
The tank is doing well. The new LEDs have my frogspawn and other corals growing ridiculously fast, and my two clownfish are happy as can be.
With summer coming up, I was looking at some new additions for the tank. Looking at my rocks and glass, I'm confident there's enough copepods to sustain a dragonet, in addition to my plan of training it to eat frozen worms from a feeding container - can't remember who it was that told me about that, but he was very well-informed and had a good method of doing it.
My question is this - I have lots of aiptasia in my tank. A LOT. They aren't harming the corals, probably because the corals are well established and can fend them off, but it doesn't change the fact that every rock has at least 5-10 anemones. Knowing that dragonets hang out on rocks pretty much their whole lives, would this be a problem? I'm not sure if he'd constantly get stung by them, until being killed by the stinging. Anyone have experience with this? Don't want to buy one and have him die from something so easily avoidable.
Thanks!
