i've used both methods...i actually like the peppermints better cuz u just toss them in the tank and let them do their thing..aiptasia x has to be targeted one by one..and if not done correctly they can return..
i love to fish but i never catch anything...i just like hangin out with buddies with some beer and beef jerky...i actually have a fish that has caught more fish then i have..here he is.. hes caught about 5 or 6 guppies...but now i just feed him frozen stuff so no more fishing for him..
i don;t know to much about canister filters but y not try a HOB protein skimmer...aquaC remora is a perfect fit for a 55g...$180...anywho...how much are u feeding...that could be ur problem to cyano..or over dosing of some kind of supplement..
depending on the bulbs ur talking about..color and growth will be different..10k is yellowish but great growth..14k is whitish with OK growth...so color and growth are effected..
If want to change bulbs. In a of fixture watts have to match with yr ballast or the old bulb. Wat u can change is yr kelvin rating which is the colorntemp of the bulb. I'm actually suprised u kept an anemone happy with that light. I guess zoa and shroom would be fine.
I wouldn't advise over 80 but if some already had a tank over 80 and didn't want to use a chiller then I would say it fine just as long it doesn't jump from 78 to 84 and back doown to 78 all in one day. Keeping temp stable is more important. JMO.
I've already had a few beers and still can't tell wats in the pics. Can u take pics afterthe yank clears up. If I had to guess it would be flame zoa. IMO IDing all these zoa and palys are just nonsense. Just a way to jack up prices. They all require about the care anyways.

It was beginning of spring so I didn't have my timer set for the fan. And it got up to 90+ degrees in my city that day out of nowhere(average 75). So came home from work...

LOL that's wat I said now I have one. Although I never drove it but I sold my BMWM3 for it. It was a sad day.
I got three for my 90g and they took care of all the aiptasia in a couple days. I noticedbthey don't touch it if it to big. For some reason they start to die off one by one after they eat all the aiptasia. I guess cuz they end up starving. They got along with my inverts which is a fire shrimp...
