I really love my latest Anemone I got from Petco at a discount

What is your po4 No3 and how do you try and control it. Claims ok with higher po4 no3

I do frequent water changes, 50 gal weekly out of 400+ gallons. I never measure my Nitrates, but I am sure it is O. I don't measure phos either but I think it is on the high side. The clams are doing great. I think sensitive SPS does not do great in my tank, but a lot of themare doing well and grow well. LPS doing great and the few soft coral I have are doing great (Xenia and Kenya tree.)
 
My Foxface Lo, when he was first got him just after Thanksgiving at just over 2 inches. Now two months later he is 3.5 inches and very fat. He is catching up with my Yellow and Purple tangs very quickly. I am sure he will be larger than those two tangs in 6-12 months. He likley wont catch up with my PBT anytime soon.

This last we have the 21 Great Texas Chill. The electricity to my house was out for 80 hrs or so. Fortunately, we have a 22kW generator they run on natural gas. The tank, and my family fared well no problem.

I’m sorry to hear you lost power, but I’m glad you had that generator handy. I would hate to see you or your tank harmed by the weather.
Edit: When you get the chance, could you get an up to date full tank shot and post it? I was hoping to nominate you for the tank of the month thing.

I got two more Radiant wrasse yesterday from Galactic Coral in Houston. This AM, the smaller of the two female is out and eating. The larger still hiding in the sand.

I occasionally go to Petco in Corpus Christi to see if they have any new animal or fish that are interesting. There are very slim picking here in Corpus Christi with regard to salt water animals.

Our lfs have small fish. Petco usually has normal sized fish, some decent anemones too. I'm probably going to order in from a quarantine fish supplier.
 
I have several colored (and VERY sticky) Haddoni carpets, but I’ve never put any fish in the system because I assumed they’d just eat them. I’m guessing you just let nature take it’s course and lose a few every so often to carpet predation?

Got some phone picture of my Magnifica at noon today. Went home for lunch. Thought I post these pictures. Not often that I get to see them at peak light.
Purple tentacles, green tips and deep red column.
