    How do you clean your filter socks?

    I turn mine inside out and wash on hot and rinse on cold in a washing machine, I also add a little bleach. Let air dry outside after the final spin cycle.

    reef safe?

    I have had mine for a year in my reef. It has never messed with any coral or inverts. I have only read a couple of documented instances of them releasing toxin even with death. The biggest problem is the size they can get around 20". Mine has been a great addition and very personable.

    Does anyone have any Reef-safe Invert Suggestions?

    Peppermints do better in groups and for an added bonus they will feed your fish for you when they spawn.

    Does anyone have any Reef-safe Invert Suggestions?

    I have never had any problems with my Sally light foot crabs being to aggressive and they are really active. Peppermint shrimp are pretty cool as well.

    Coral Suggestion

    I am looking for a coral that likes moderate to strong flow. I am looking for something that flows in the current like the Elegance coral which is what I wanted until I read that they don't do well in aquariums. I have 440 watts of vho's and 2-400 watt mh's. I have a huge (50+ head) frogspawn...

    falco hawk with flame scallops?

    My Falco has never bothered any of my inverts but I never had a flame scallop. However, when I bought the Falco from my LFS it was in a tank with three flame scallops and it never payed any attention to them. Sorry I can't help more.

    One Week

    Good luck! I think most people hit a few bumps when first trying to keep anemones, I know I did. It really is an awsome addition especially when your clowns host it and form their symbiotic bond. Nature never ceases to amaze me even in a semi-controlled environment like an aquarium.
