yup, I'm going to use this oppurtunity to eradicate the cyano problem that I've just been able to keep in check. I figure the shrimps and crabs and snails can do without food for at least a full week. What do ya think?

Ok, so my anemone started wandering the other day, which is bad news since he's about 6" diameter now. Then when I got home yesterday he was half sucked into the intake skimmer, becuase he's retarded (I know butt and mouth with no eyes). Turned off the filter and he came out from being stuck in the intake and seemed no worse for wear. Did a 2.5 gallon water change.
Is there a possibility the anemone is having fish withdrawls? I did have a clown previously, even though there was minimal sign of hosting, the clown did stick near the front of the tank (near the anemone).

I appreciate the optimism, but the tank "looked" great before all my fish died and my zoas closed when I went on vacation and the death heat wave came. I'll get new full tank pictures up once everything opens up or dies out; and the tank (and anemone) stabilize

So I got a clown goby today. The water temp has been lower so he should be fine. Already found a small flame and a small six line at two LFS. So I'm gonna see how the clown goby does this week then may buy the others :)

So the clown goby decided he wanted to live in the refugium, and I haven't been able to get him out because hes too small and fast. So apparantley thats where he's going to stay.
In the meantime this weekend I got a new sixline wrasse (slightly smaller than the last one) and a new flame angel (slightly larger than the last one). They seem to be doing well. Dunno if I'm going to add anything else until I get the 40 gallon figured out.
In other news, the anemone finally stopped wandering, after getting stuck in the filter it decided it wanted a buzz from my Koralia. Its just now starting to look normal and healthy again; and sprouting new tentacles on the 1/4 of itself that gave shaved off from the koralia fan.

Not yet, the flame has been super skittish. Hopefully he will be a bit more photogenic soon. I'll post a FTS when I get a chance either way

I think the orange and green ones are called whammin' watermelons, I have no idea what the orange and white ones are called.
