    Its not all that bad, :) Get a good specimen and you will enjoy them lots! Try to get ones with better tempers though... It makes things more peaceful and less of the jumping.

    Glass tops are horrible for air passage. Try making a clear mesh screen top :)

    They work well if your local hardware store doesnt have the clear. Mine all had black mesh. It worked just the same but diffused a small amount of light. Eggcrating works as well but no guarantee that smaller fish don't find a nice escape route.

    It ONLY eats acans and chalices? Sounds expensive to feed! ;)

    the 29 is just for chalices and acans. she doesnt touch my mushrooms, gsp, montis, or even my clam. she is a very picky eater when it comes to corals thankfully.
