scrub the anemone if it was going to be a host one and go for mushroom nems various button polyps xenia leather coral to start with once you have got these sussed start considering a few stony corals. Leave space for growth between the corals too.
Things to supplement will be alk and calcium and watch the magnesium levels and thats pretty much it really and keep the water quality spot on. minimal nitrate and as lower phosphate as possible. |
