The tank looks great. I added a realistic background and a timer for the lights.
Ive got the o-ring and all the gaskets ordered to have my canister filter up and running. Parameters are great, except for the nitrates. They were at 20ppm when I changed the water, and are still at 20ppm even after the water change. Should I do another water change?

Nitrates are hard to get down. 20 is okay for fish only, and borderline fine for inverts. You could do a couple water changes a week until they get lowered, but they are okay.

If your going to add your anemone back to your tank I would get the trates down as low as posable. If there isnt anything in there now I would do a large water change, before you add the anemone.
