Default Skimmer skim sludgey

Did some maintenance on the tank last night. had a minimal Nh3 reading but all other levels great. it has taken alot of diligence to get my Ca To above 400 and keep my Kh at 180-200. i test and dose both (ca one day kh the next) without missing a day. i had to dose both at about 3 Times the recommended dose to get it there. anything less and it never moved. tank looks good clowns are happy and my Rio is skimming like crazy (I run it a week at a time as my tank is picky)

Default Nem

The anemone Has moved a few times so i added a little more flow to see if it settles him. he sat on my red palys And my red zoos (i think he likes red) but does not seem to have bothered them too much. he is opening very well and growing. the clowns seem to watch it but have not hosted yet... but at least still ignoring my beautifly splitting red frog spawn. i had to move my green sinularia To a new location (and despite its slow growth rate) does well everywhere in the tank.
