I'm wanting to remove my bubble tip anemones and get a Haddoni carpet anemone. I would put it in the corner where my current anemones are. My biggest concern is that it will eat my fish. Anyone had experience with this type before?

This has always been my fear.

Forgive me if I missed it but what kind of program are you running on your gyres
Unforgivable! haha

I run them in alternating mode with them switching every 2 minutes. I have the reverse flow set at 0% to not have it interfere with the flow from the other pump.

Pretty simple. I know you can get real creative with that controller but man, it is confusing. I DO have the tech skills of a 90 year old though.

Next question. What are your 5 favorite BC pieces you’ve gotten to this point

There is so much you can do with it and I didn't understand a lot of either. I figured alternating and letting them create a strong flow when one turns off and the other turns would be plenty of flow.

In no particular order the ones I like the most are

BC Backdraft (this one is seriously impressing me lately)
BC Unicorn bubble bath
BC Bonfire
BC Aquaticman
BC Space laser
and not his named coral but I got the Hung's rainbow from him that's amazing also.

I know BRS now sells 2x2 and 3x3 tiles for frags as well.
I know there are several people who sell them but they are just too much money compared to Home Depot.

Hold that thought Bubba! Wait until I order my 2 frags from BC first! [emoji23]
Order fast!

I am going to take a break from posting pics until the New year just to have a little break and all the holiday stuff is taking up a lot of time. Let's end the year with another favorite of mine.
