Wow, beautiful tank! I love the crocea.

 

[tommyfish]

Thanks, we saved the crocea from the lfs store. They don't have the lighting it needs. Any one have any IDs for number five? We call them anenome polyps.

#5 looks like a very happy bubble tip anemone to me.
Very nice set up by the way! I really like the rock structure that you have set up. Do you have any full tank shots?

Actually, after closer examination I could be wrong . . . . how big are they? hard to tell from the pic.

Tommyfish
Your anemones in Pic #5 are a Fiji-type anemone that, while attractive, are pests comprable to aiptasias. Unfortunately, they're harder to eliminate.
About the only way to eliminate them is to use a syringe and inject them.
There has been some discussion on the board as to what to inject them with. I've used miratic (sp) acid, but only inject a couple at a time. I've had friends use vinegar.
You need a direct hit to get rid of them. IMO, if they are concentrated on a small rock, I'd take the rock out of the tank.
FWIW,

Thanks for the information they haven't caused any problems yet anyway. We bought them about 6 months ago.

No, we have 2 mh's on it. They have the spider reflectors. We have the softies to the outside and towards the bottom more.

Varies from month to year We are in the process of setting up a 125, with a 55 fuge, sump. So we are going to take some out of here and put in it when it is ready
