Looking to add a rock flower anemone and a maxi mini carpet, but have been dealing with a brown hair algae outbreak for about a month. It seems to be slowing down and looks to be thinning out on the rocks. Just wondering if the Algae would stress/ cause harm to the anemone's if added. Thanks
 
My rockflower anemones pretty much ignore everything - including corals (I have 2 that buried themselves in the center of zoa colonies).
awesome thats good news, i think ill put the order in today

also what prams do you run? Wanna know what keeps them happy
 
I keep my salinity 35.2-35.8ppt, alkalinity 8.1-8.25dKH, 450-500 calcium and 1400-1450 magnesium. Phosphates 0.10ppm and nitrates 30-35ppm. They seem to do well overall.
ok cool thanks
