Default Nitrate!



I also have made a resolution to never ever buy anyhting but fish and
clean up crews that are capable of moiving aorund on its own. Never
ever will I buy any mobile corals. Its a never ending hassle keeping
them happy. If its not food its water if its not water its light, if
not light its current flow, if its not current flow its
location........the list never ends, and just when yu think they are
happy where they are at, and re-arrange everything to suit "their"
chosen location they pack up and move again.

Anemone, tough call. I got 3 bubbletips and they slowly die.
They need good water quality, strong light, sometimes manual feeding, and
most of all (on my case),
Be far from the filter since they move a lot and get trap on
filters/powerheads.

I've lost two: One to predation and the other to a powerhead from hell
(1800 l/hr now removed).

So far, all are doing much better. The bubble tip is staying put, but
the ritteri does move around. I have two smaller ones that the clowns
ignore and they seem to have found a home and are staying put as well.
