Welcome to RS! Start a tank thread so we can follow your journey!! :swmfish:

Post some more information about your tank so folks can help, what kind of lights do you have? How long has it been set up? etc.

Here is some good reading:

Hi Momo
:welcomera WELCOME to Reef Sanctuary
I have only been keeping corals (no anemones for me tho) for a little over a year....
I learned it all RIGHT HERE @ RS.
Stick around, share your tank & ask away with whatever you wonder about.
Hope to be able to pass on some good tips that I've been doing well with.
Very BEST WISHES :biker

Hi MOMO,
Sounds like you have a nice tank so far. For corals, I started with leathers and mushrooms. My ocellaris Agent Orange loves his hairy mushroom - he sucks on the short tentacles and rolls around all day - totally adopted it. In fact he's sleeping around in the star polyps and tongue as well. I tried different anenomes and they just didn't thrive. My clown definitely isn't stunted because he doesn't have an anenome.

If you have strong lighting (around 3-4w per gallon you can have almost any coral and anemone). I have a 28gal jbjnanocube and my anemone has split into 8 anemones. I have hard and soft corals too. Just do a 5 gal water change every 2 weeks.
