    Ok guys/gals... here a few quick pics... Taken with my phone so sorry for the quality. If anyone wants to ID any of this... feel free.. I am not sure what most of it is and would LOOOVE to learn.

    This first picture is of a HUGE rock covered in some sort of plant. You will see the size of the rock in the full pictures further down. What is this plant?

    Next is a picture of my mushrooms. Not sure of which type.

    [​IMG]

    Up next is my anemone... again not sure of which type.. I have two of these
    [​IMG]

    Next is an odd plant... this is a terrible pic... it has a long transparent stem.. it sort of resembles an anemone.. I have many of these throughout my tank.
    [​IMG]

    Here is a sideview of my tank... another good pic of that large rock that is covered
    [​IMG]

    Here is a pic of my full setup
    [​IMG]

    Another pic

    [​IMG]

    Last but not least... another pic of the rock.. with a clown fish (what are these type normally called, light orange on bottom and dark on top)

    ya the first picture is of a pulsing xenia and the anemone is what looks to be a long-tentacle anemone. Hope your putting the chemicals in the tank for all that! and welcome to 3Reef

    That xenia is all over that rock.. along with some other small corals.

    I am most likely not... what chemicals should I be putting in?

    I am VERY new to all of this... I pretty much walked in and bought this setup as it sits... knowing very little about saltwater.. this is my first venture in to it.. I have only added some cleanup crew and a couple fish.

    I have done water changes... and rearranged the aqua scape at that time..

    i wouldnt worry about dosing only people that dont do water changes or have a tank full of corals have to dose.

    also i think i will throw this out there since a few people dont know this when they start up a saltwater tank, when you topoff from evaporation use fresh water not saltwater as very little salt evaporates
