general consensus is to leave that light on 24/7.

Looks like a healthy Pagoda Cup to me. Tentacles are extended beyond what I have normally seen. Just MO.

I think you're right Funkyman. I wouldn't trust that I was getting RO from a grocery store. You can buy some gallon jugs that say distilled and they will list RO as the type. My LFS charges .50 per gallon. That's why I took the plunge and got my own RO/DI unit. It'll pay for itself in the long...

Why do we always want to break the rules and go against our better judgement and keep adding more and more to our displays until nothing is healthy? Remember 1" of fish for every 5 gallons, and that rule can be broken depending on how good your filtration is, water parameters, water changes...

I currently have a flame and a coral beauty sharing space in a 125. I wouldn't recommend doing that in smaller tanks. Need to provide a lot of rockwork. The coral beauty was in the tank first and did not like the addition of the flame. Flame spent better part of two days being chased befor coral...
