Thanks guys and gals!

Well, I called around (I live in Portsmouth, Ohio) and the only other saltwater store is in Ashland, KY...

..owned by the same guy at my local store...

Im in a rural, very poor area, so theres really no clubs, or even other reefers to speak of. So I guess Im debating on trying to keep this little bugger alive, or by a larger tank with all the trimmings.

I dont really want to buy a large tank until my knowledge of caring for a reef is much more solid.

Before I forget, the anemone has started to change its color from bleached, to a pinkish red center, with a brownish/greenish tentacles(?) Not sure what they are called. What should this be telling me?

The clownfishes have not even atempted to bond with the anemone, so Im pretty worried about that. Thats why I thought it might be a condy.

sigh...I really dont want to nuke my tank...
