IMO most sps corals are not going to do to well in a 12g nano... lighting, water quality & water stability could all be an issue. The zoos and shrooms should do fine... no need to spot feed them though. Water changing should keep everything in line but testing is the only way to tell for...

My Tomato Clown does that... you can glue the rock the star polyps are on in place so he can't move it.

Buy a test kit to test your alkalinity & calcium. We need the alkalinity reading to help you with adding baking soda. Do not add anything until you are able to test. Until then, explain your setup for us... size of tank, fish, the WATER FLOW you have, etc. These things will give a general...

VHOs require a differant type of ballast, they will not work in your current fixture.

I see nothing wrong with any questions you have asked... Asking questions and discussing the answers everyone give IS what this site is all about IMO. 2 heads are better than 1... and 6,275 heads (the current number of users on this site right now)... well you get the idea. I have learned a...

Very seldom do Mandarins except prepared foods... it is by far the exception. "there is just some ppl that think they know it all and there is no one else allowed to have a opinion" There are just as many ppl that think they know everything on a subject they have no personal experience with...

Looks good to me... I would build up to that point though and not add them all at once. At first the tank may not have enough food for a full size cleanup crew.

One ballast per-bulb... so you will need 3 ballasts. When they say "dual probe" or "dual pulse" that just means there are two ballasts in the same box. There are three types of ballasts... Probe Start Magnetic, Pulse Start Magnetic & Electronic. When using Probe Start Ballasts you need to run...

There are thousands of species of crabs... exact IDs can be very difficult. The only "guess" I have is maybe a Porcelain Anemone Crab "Neopetrolisthes maculosus".

IMO wait atleast 6-months before adding any conch. I'd do 2-fighting and 1-queen as the tank permits... this site recommends 1-fighting conch per-30g and 1-queen per-20g... this is due to them only being 1" long... both get pretty big though. The other numbers you listed looks good to me for...

So what do they think it is??

As Beatlesfan indicated... Get an air hose... insert it into the u-tube until it reaches the top of the arch. Put the u-tube in the overflow box, make sure both compartments are full of water and suck the air out with the air hose. The u-tube will fill with water and then you can pull the air...

Rock Anemone?? or are you looking for the scientific name??

How long between when you noticed it turning white to this picture??
