Hi Everyone!
Setup my first reef tank roughly 6 weeks ago. I have been keeping fish for 25 years, salt and fresh. This is my first foray into reef keeping. I currently have a 65 Gallon (36x18x24) with 2 Finnex marine+ 24/7 LEDs on the tank. It is housing a six line wrasse, a yellow tail damsel, coral banded shrimp and a pink spotted goby. I have a few corals, a zoa?, a hammer? a acan? and one other I'm unsure of what the name is. I look forward to learning here and growing in the hobby.

after browsing here I have removed some rock and re-aquascaped because it seemed I had too much live rock.. speaking of which, anyone know what this stuff is? I have a ton of it. I attached two with different kind of lighting so maybe you all can get a better idea. My LFS said it was a pest anemone but I would like to confirm.

Looks to be ball anemones. Usually not bad, I have a few in my tank. Just keep an eye on them that they don't go out of hand :)
