Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

I have never attempted to keep an anemone. Just never really wanted one wandering around stinging corals. So, I am no help here.
2nd that.
 
I saw the Beatles first US TV appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964. I was 9. They turned the music world upside down and no one in my lifetime has even come close to creating the kind of pandemonium they did when they arrived on the scene. It was insane. They were so much different than anything out there and actually introduced many Americans to music we already had here, like Chuck Berry and Little Richard.

I also saw the first MTV broadcast when I was in my early 20s and liked it for a short time. Watching music videos is not like listening to great audio tracks. Audio of your favorite songs will hold up to obsessive listening. No way I can watch the same video over and over.

What I do miss, is real FM radio. The kind that grew from the late 60's and early 70s. Anyone remember a radio program out of Arkansas, called Beaker Street? Late at night, that station would crank the power to where their station covered a massive area. I would say that is not even legal these days. They were the first station that I recall that played album tracks, even long ones like In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida - all 17 minutes of it. And Steppenwolf's scandalous song (very tame by today's standards), "The Pusher." We had a great station here in town KGRA - Nova 104. Man, that was the best.

And to illustrate how old I am, this is a weekly "Top 40 Survey" that I still have from June 1969. You could pick these up at the local record shop - something else I miss. :-)

Anyone remember laser disc. It was an album but had the video with each song. I remember watching and listening to the whole album of duran duran Rio, and especially the song girls on film uncensored.

I had one. It was awful. It skipped like a vinyl record. I think they called them Laser Discs, but the player had a stylus, like a turntable (if I remember correctly). I only threw it away a few years ago. I had three James Bond movies - and ONLY the Sean Connery 007. :-)
 
Oh wait. I was mistaken. What I had was much older than a laser disc! Ha! It was an RCA Video Disc player. It had a stylus like a record player. Total trash. $500 player and movies were $15 - in 1980! :eek:

Yup. Didn’t think I wanted one but got one. Now one is two and they are getting active after 5 months. They look unhappy if I don’t feed them but they now are in places they can’t be feed. Hope I don’t regret the anemone
 
Katrina, I think your light will be fine. BTAs do well in around 200 PAR. Mine is about that. They do not need the higher light of say an H. magnifica as you likely know. Your corals and RFAs are all healthy and happy. Put the anemone up top as you originally said with your lights. Plan B can still be Andrew’s tank. Changing the light to something more powerful would be a variable that would affect everything in the tank. If you do it, though, start low and acclimate slow.

@Katrina71
100% agree. Changing lights can cause problems more the repair a problem that you don’t have.

If my limited knowledge means anything.
 
More old stuff. This was my graduation present in 1972. A 1959 MG-A. I didn't keep it though. It had survived and may still be on the road in the southern California climate. I didn't want to bring it home to Louisiana and have it rust to nothing in a couple of years. It had a convertible top and canvas framed vinyl door windows. It would have leaked like a sieve down here. My dad bought this car for $250 and fixed it up. It was a cool little car to drive though.

Thank you for making that point. I had thought about that too.

My first car was a white 1979 MGB! That thing is a beauty Fin!

I loved getting British magazines and albums. My mom once got me a Japanese Duran Duran book.
