AHH!!! Oh no! The LFS has done it again! A PBT does not belong in any tank under 75 gallons, IMO, preferably much larger. Especially in a uniquely shaped aquarium. Take him back to the lfs ASAP. BTW, I like the new rockwork a whole lot better. It looks real nice now. I'd take the fake stuff out if I were you... Also, your anemone looks bleached. What kind of lighting is he under?

I think the red one is a CHILI coral, some LFS's even call them CHILI Sponge. But Coral is more correct. I have been looking at them and they do bring a lot of color to your tank. I have read that they do not like direct light at the top of the tank. So keep an eye on it and move if looking bad.
