I had an orange ricordea disappear that was close to a rock anemone. I am wondering if the nem ate the ric. What do ya'll think?

One thing I would add is get an RO/DI filter system. It will save $ and hassles!

My non expert method is to keep a heated, powerhead stirred batch of saltwater mixed up and ready to use at least 7 to 10 days before I do a water change, which is every 2 weeks. I usually try to mix a fresh batch right after I do a change, so I will always have a supply on hand---just in case!

Ah yes, with Van Jones, ACORN, the health care reform debacle, and Jimmy Cotter defending the prez, it is extremely entertaining watching the Dems shooting themselves in the foot at every turn. Obama's reign is starting to crumble as it barely gets started.

Well, as the Master, Jimi Hendrix sang in the great blues tune "Red House", it's all right, I've still got my guitar.

OK, allow me to throw a wrench into the works here. Concerning the issue of which media is easier to clean, in the case of live rock, why would you want to clean it at all. I don't clean the live rock in my DT, so why would I want to clean LR/rubble in my sump?

Be patient.

RR for sure. I drilled my tank after suffering the worry and hassle of an OF box. If I had it to do over again, I would definitely go with a drilled or RR tank from the start.

I like bare bottoms, just not in aquariums!

LOL, the first time I ever set up a sw tank, I used fake corals, fake anemones, and crushed coral. As has been stated, the fake stuff looks sort of ok for a while, but soon starts to look not so good. I have long since moved to real corals with live rock and live sand. Way more realistic and...

Remember also that powerheads and pumps contribute heat to the system so their usage and application should be optimized as much as possible.
