Thanks everyone

I am planning to get a good strong CUC to hopefully take care of any undesirables. Are those 2 large anenome things also Aiptasia? The seem to large...as their centers are nearly 50cent piece sized, if so they are the largest I have ever seen

yes, i've seen them this big at the store where and at this size not even peppermint shrimp will eat them, so you need to kalk paste them.

sucks, i was hoping they were something friendlier due to their size. I will pick up some glue and scare them back into their holes and cover them up. Will definatly order some pepermint shrimp for the maintained control of them.

Pic of the tank without the actinics on,

I have ordered kalk for the aiptasia, they are still in the tank so far. Nothing new as of now I may pick up the first of the fish in a week or two.

Nice!

So when do you think you will be able to get some corals?

Thanks Milt

I probably wont start stocking corals till April. I need to suck it up and buy a home RO/DI unit...bringing water from the LFS is getting old. I will probably just go with a 50GPD Coralife PureFlo RO and add on the DI unit. Have the larger 100GPD model at the shop and its really easy to use, and I dont really need a pump as I will only need 8-9G per week tops.
