    Critter bugs eating zoa's

    clams and anemone safe together?

    I'd imagine if the clams were of sand-dwelling species, and the anemone were of the LR dwelling -(or vice versa) the chances of accidental stinging would be reduced. personally i wouldn't keep the two together-but that's just my preference...like some ppl prefer bare bottom vs. sand kinda thing.

    Such thing as too much phosphate removal?

    i could be totally off on this - but I believe certain types of sand for the playground could have silicates. In addition water that is not treated via RODI may contain silicates. Therefore the conclusion would be in order to reduce silicates - one tries not to introduce them. That stated, and...

    What can i do to get corals to grow faster/healthier?

    I can understand this statement for SPS - but for shrooms? I don't know about that. But again - with this hobby - so many different paths lead to success. nick - with patience the shrooms will colonize everything in your tank. Eventually I bet you will post a year's time asking how to prevent...

    Any gamers in the house?

    I am not familiar with xbox live, but with any internet play, (i.e. Blizzard's battlenet) it's "wide" open and unless they are setting up a game with friends - its really "anything goes". How about board games - anyone still play RISK? Axis & Allies?
