Fortunately I have quite a bit of flow through the sump. (About 2700 GPH) so any detritus I can get up into the water column goes down the overflow pretty quickly. I could probably use another PH myself.

Got a free Bubbletip clone over the weekend. Actually its a decent size already. Free because the mother anemone has lost color in my friends tank and he wants to see how it does in mine (plus I dont think he wants two of them in his tank anyways). It was in his sump for a week with little to no light but still looks ok after just a day or two in my tank.

I don't know if its stopped moving yet but I hope so. It was on the move all day yesterday. Hopefully its happy now.



You can see the placement in this picture.
