    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    BTW the tank looks great.

    The initial algae blooms seem to be subsiding.

    Traded a few things at my lfs for a green carpet anemone. Its pretty large so I moved a couple things around. I tried to bury the foot the best I could but its pretty tall.

    Well I was worried about its foot, so I moved it and some what built a cave for its foot. I'm kinda worried BC the mouth is open, its got some stuff coming out of it so idk if its "releasing" or if something is wrong. Will also day that's its much larger than I anticipated.

    It will be beautiful it looks like....I don't think the mouth looks too bad, probably just acclimating. The coloring looks very healthy. Are your clowns showing interest, it looks like one is nearby....

    I have a question, do carpets move less than BTA's?
