But alas, Im stuck. I have a Durso style drain. with the ail vent up top. I also tried the T style thing down at the sump, to let the air escape instead of going into the sump with the water. I found it was noisy. The upright tube was like a megaphone. Did you have success with it?

My success has been moving the reef to the big tank! I guess you missed all that

Its got two drains and a proper herbie style overflow. Dead silent.

As for the fish. No I was not going to intervene. I did think about it though. But I think I would have ripped the poor thing in two. That anemone is one of the mini carpets and is the stickiest anemone I have ever felt. Nothing comes back out! Its sting is very painful too. I can easily touch bubbletip or long tentacle anemones but the mini carpet...forget it!

Oh well...like I said thats nature. Don't know if I will replace that fish. I may though. I am going to J&L tomorrow and Im sure I will be tempted.

Yeah I guess they don't...I don't know. Just assumed they did. I have touched them and never really felt anything. Maybe thats because those species don't sting. I just know the carpet stings and leave your hands really, really red after.
