Hi! I just upgraded my tank from a 30 gallon to a 75 gallon and I am SO ready to add corals to it. Right now I only have mushrooms that are doing extremely well (but let's be real...it's pretty easy for those to do well). I have some T5 lighting that I am using (eventually I want LEDs though)...

I'm not sure anymore! I don't know how I could tell what it is or should be. Like I said I bought it thinking it was a green bubble tip

I don't actually know my parameters.. I used to have a sebae when my tank was about 4 months old which didn't make it more than two months. This one has been a real trooper. I haven't quite had these bulbs a year - only maybe 9 months or so. My anem is planted and has been in the same spot...

pic is upside down but that's the kind of light. They are less than a year old. The tank is 29 gal. and I feed it mysis shrimp and occasionally quartered pieces of shrimp.

I feed it pieces of shrimp when I have it and mysis shrimp weekly. It's always been stretched out which makes me think it's the lighting...

T5, I will get pics.

Hi all, I have had my green bubble tip anemone now for about 6 months. It is being hosted by my paired clowns and is overall fairly happy. However it can't be that happy because it never has turned green! Not even close! It's pure white. When I bought it it was white and today it is still...

It is getting more color than before.... I do have a ton of particles floating around in my tank getting circulated all over the place. Suggestions?

I don't really want to go overkill - I'd prefer not to spend a crazy amount... I like the look of the ones that hang over head. How do I acclimate everything for lighting?

would this be ok? Odyssea Metal Halide System

It would require some serious handylady work... right now my tank is on top of a wooded 3 drawer dresser...

Thanks - I will look in to that. And I am glad I don't need a skimmer because my space is pretty limited. I don't know if I could do a refugium although it would be nice to have one. I wish I could start over with a bigger tank and a better set up!

What should I get?

no I got it new - It was better than the bulb I had before...
