I can absolutely do that! I like having a couple different anemones on display and have decent luck with carpets, mini carpets, long tentacles, and Haitians. I have trouble with condies and bubble tips. The bubbles attach to a rock right off the bat and do ok for a while but suffer long term. I...

Again thank you so much for your input. I wasn't sure if I was just really awful at SW or if I was just screwed by my employer. I'm starting to feel like it's not me that's the problem and I really do appreciate that! Do you have any advice for keeping bubble tip anemones thriving?

It's a good thought. Maybe with persistence they would let me set up some kind of QT away from the main display. As of now, I can shut off one of the 15 gallon sections of the main display and use that, but the paperwork is mental and long-term they probably wouldn't like it too much. Proper QT...

My losses (shrink) are some of the best in our district. My percentages are sitting at roughly 20-25% shrink, if that means anything to you. :) I try to not keep too many tangs or angels in our system because, as you have said, I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place with my salinity and it...

I test twice weekly and have stable results recorded. My results are almost always the same. Today's test results: Temp: 76F Specific gravity: 1.020 Ammonia: 0 Nitrite: 0 Nitrate: <10 I do water changes once or twice weekly just depending on how much time I have and what my bio load looks like...

I'm ready to pull my hair out on this one. Not new to fishkeeping (20+ years in the hobby) but I'd call myself little more than a beginner in saltwater (roughly 2-3 years general experience). I work in a retail store as the fish gal, and it's corporate run so there's only so much I have...
