A lfs did the same thing to my brother who resides in Victoria when he first started in the hobby. He bought a coral and when he got home he called me to ask about its care and when he told me about the "extra" he had to pay for i could not believe it at first.

I can see why you would not want the cross damsels. Have you tried feeding in a net?

I have been feeding in a net this week and then leaving the net hanging out of the aquarium so that the fish can get used to it. Day one nobody would go near the net, but by day two all fish were willing to enter the net to feed. You might want to try it out.

somebody's MH DIY canopy and skimmer when i was going to turn my 55 gallon into a reef tank. never used them. might at one point use the skimmer, but the lights and canopy are just gathering dust. STUPID waste of money.

I do my homework on all big purchases ($100.00 +) but a few times when I was about to make a purchase I was either talked out of it for something "better" or changed my mind to save money. Each time I have kicked myself for wasting money so now I hold by the law of research.
