Well after my RBTA starting losing color I upgraded the light to a 150w MH SunPod 20in HQI from Current USA.
Again I have to give credit to DeMartini on this purchase.
Pics to be posted soon.

This is the one I'm going to get for my 29 when I can afford it. So it looks like it fits fine with the mounting legs, huh? Let me know if you are happy with it, thanks!

If I had it to do over I would go with a nano customs retro or the 250w because it has better options over the 150w.
Oh by the way I posted a sunpod wanted on many forums and by chance a guy on a local forum had one. Got it used at half cost.
Good Luck

12g
Well after my seahorses galloped off in the sunset my cool pink cucumber really became a pickle. Another one bites the dust.
With the advice I moved the coralbanded shrimp over to the 12gallon.
Currrent livestock:
2 Clowns
1 Coral Banded Shrimp
2 Turbo Snails
1 Sand Sifting Snail
I plan to turn the 12g into a frag tank. I found a guy who will sell me way to many Rics since he is geting out of the hobby. So I am going to cherry pick the ones I want and sell the rest. If the deal goes I will post pics. ==========================================================
29g
After a trip out of town I lost one of my Piccaso Clowns. I never found him so I guess he got drug under the LR and became a $100 buffet.

Current Livestock
1 - False Perc Clown
3 - Piccaso Clowns
1 - FireFish (Purple)
1 - Cannary Blenny
1 - Bi-color Blenny
1 - Yellow Watchman
1 - Tiger Pistol Shrimp
5 - Peppermint Shrimp
1 - Fire Shrimp
Multiple Snails
A local guy gave me a Mandarin Goby to hold why he is away on vacation but I feel I don't have the pods(food) for the guy to survive. I told him I would do my best but no gurantee. I will try to post a pic soon.
==========================================================
Oh if anyone would like to help me get to 50 posts it would let me know I am not just talking to myself.

You don't think that the 250w is a little much for a 29g cube?

Yea its alot of light but I like the options it has over the 150w. If you are concerned with heat I had to put a heater in my cube after going topless. And at the time I ran my light up to 10 hours a day. The apartment A/C is set at 75 and my water temp stayed around 72-75.

Its color will come back, give it time. Feed it frequently and in small quantities it can take 6 months to a year for a bleached anenome to regain its color again.

Man you hit me back on both post with the same question. You are all over the place. Thanks for the advice.

No not at all. Mine stays out with no shade and it opens up around feeding time.
