    new Carpet anemone

    I assume you have MHs? You could try pieces of shrimp. Also, if a clown lives in one, he will bring him food.

    queen anthias pair-anyone keep 'em?

    NEVER keep anthias in a pair. They require a harem. If your tank is less than 175 gallons, just keep one. It may become your favourite fish, as it will have its dominant colours!

The bacteria responsible for this, Nitrosamonas, and Nitrobacter, need an environment with good oxygen, and a steady supply of ammonia, in this case, a dead...

    Should I turn PHs off at night?

    DO NOT TURN THEM OFF. If you do, you may wake up one morning to find all of your animals have become rotting blobs.
