The picture number 7 is a tube Anemone which would sting ur fishes even clowns..

Careful ...

Yea, it sting me, once but not pain.. i believe that all my fishes there are very very scared to go near it.. but May i ask you weather will it kill the Anemone coral there,

better than my 1st tank :P

just to tell you,

the brown fish with white patches is a painted sweetlips,

it will outgrow your tank in a while,

also it might just snack on your smaller fishes if it can.

your bubble tip anemone will bleach under your current lighting :(

you might want to consider upgrading?

the tube anemone has a powerful sting, but it doesn't need that much light :D

the tree as you call it is a sea fan,

the species you have is not photosynthetic

so you'll need to feed it plankton regularly :D

:peace:

dude,

1 month is really kinda new.

can i suggest you stock slowly?

give your tank and the biological filtration time to grow and mature.

:P

read up on the various reef inhabitants...

you will find that this hobby is SUPER interesting :D

also, if certain LFS shops realize you know what you are talking about,

they will back off keep their 'chopping knives' :D

personally, i prefer black backings,

it gives depth to your tank.

I think your skimmer is a bit too low and it is clear water in the collection cup :o Try to shift it upward to where your first green ring holder is and i dunno how strong is your air pump but should be stronger to create a turbulence inside to be more effective.

Yea, i using the valve to control the air pressure.. as my air pump is very powerful.. making the skimmer always overflow,
