I believe we can just about take anemones off the sensitives list. They have initial angry reactions, then they all open.

Examples in bright color:

estimate there to be twenty or more anem documentations in that thread. It's not that I'd go off directly dosing every sebae and heteractis one could find...work around as needed. It's that accidental direct dosings are rarely lethal. We show a bunch of purposeful dosings there.

I've started mg dosing coupled with peroxide scrubs seems to be helping but in getting diatoms

Justin Credabel from what I understand is the leading expert in Hydrogen Peroxide use in marine aquariums. He's been dosing for probably close to 10 years now. Here's one article from him: https://reefbuilders.com/2010/03/29/uses-for-hydrogen-peroxide-in-the-aquarium-algae-removal/

Do some research first, but from what I understand invertebrates are at risk, but if done slowly and methodically it is possible to dose the tank directly. His primary recommendation is to remove the rock and dip in H2O2 then place back in tank once rinsed. Not sure if that recommendation has changed. I've used this approach with good results.

sinked up sandbeds are usually at play in what you are mentioning...is your sandbed free of detritus or does it store it up? pics
