    ID the Anemone please

    Its names 'flathead' anemone at the fish store. I tried googling under that name, but nothing pulled up so I am guessing it has more of a technical name. I am trying to find out more about it such as care and placement in the tank. Thanks in advance if anyone can offer any information.

Well they were way to bright so I decided to place a two...

    Dream reefing device...

    I figured I would start a thread about anything that may or may not have been invented in our hobby that would greatly help us achieve that 'perfect' reef. Here is my idea: A head unit (like the Apex Neptune) that can monitor pH, Mag, Calc, and dKH all at once. This unit would be tied into a...
