    i signed up with them as a retail vendor about 6 months ago. i thought the prices were about retail, and the inventory was not very exciting either. i have never made a purchase.

    Lighting vs. Water Requirements

    if you are simply adding calcium like you stated, your water parameters are probably out of whack. additions of calcium will effect your alk. just do some water changes to remove the excess and you should be ok. step it up to weekly for a while, until the parameters are correct. how did you...

    40 breeder flow rate?

    don't forget about microbubbles. in a small sump like a 10 gallon, you don't want the water coming through too fast. i would use the mag5 and drill the 40b.

    acans?

    can you take a closer pic of it? acans don't look like blastos. it could be an acan echinata though, or possibly favia.

    a rose bubble tip is a very pretty creature. the warning is: anemone position themselves where they like to be. you cannot force them to stay where you want them. he might not like the area of sand in the center of the tank.
