    That is most likely only a carbon filter. I would make runs to the grocery store for the water dispenser machines.

    You have a lot of room, very cool.

    Looks good, I like the scape as well.

    Is that a huge sebae anemone ?

    Thank you Corailline.

    It is a massive anemone, about 9" across. Grown a bit since we got her. She is closed up due to the move. I've had her for about 2mths and she eats well (2X weekly).:thumb_up: Coloration is tan and the tips are radiant under the actinic.

    Very cool, looks and sounds like a sebae. Not the easiest anemone to keep but yours sure looks healthy.


    Stocking that tank is going to be fun.

    Thanks again. It is a sebae, I was just stating that it is massive in size..LOL.;D I do apreciate your compliments. I have researched extensively on the sebae. I truly enjoy its presence (sp) in my tank. ;D

    Quick update. My tank is getting some brown algae (looks like hair algae). I am fairly certain that it is due to phosphates, poor circulation and filtration (20G oceaninc sump "temp"), from what I have been reading and researching. I throttled back my feeding to once every other day. My livestock looks healthy and my sebae anem moved to a prime location. I will try to get a pic of her.

    In the meantime I am awaiting my custom sump from a local aquarist. He gave me his word that it will be done tomorrow ( i have been anxiously (but patient) waiting for a month.:smartass1. I am also headed to that pet place tomorrow and purchasing a phosphate reactor and a couple of test kits. This is more of a bandaid, I am in the hunt for a RODI system. 'Lesson learned"

    :stupid:

    But my hope is not wayning! Once the sump is in place I will have about 3200GPH flow through the tank and a nice sized fuge along with other "custom" compartments in the sump. It was supposed to be a 40G breeder custom sump, but the gentleman cracked it the night I was supposed to pick it up. He patched it up nicely but we (wife & I) could not risk it. He took it upon himself to remake it out of acrylic...:victory: So I cannot wait. I will post pics of the sump as well when I receive it.
