I bought 2nd hand 125 gallon tank with octopus sump 2 300 watt heaters, 2 wave makers, 4 ft LED LIGHT, 4 clown fish, 2 engineer goby, 6 blackwiddow sea anems, all rock and sand, test kits, 2 cardinal fish, crabs and snails. All for only $400. What a deal. I save most of the water but had to mix some. Salinity is 1.025 but my nitrite went very high and bleached my anems. Did a 40 gallon water change and levels good now. How do I save my anems? I've been feeding raw shrimp prices everyday.

Hello and Welcome to R2R! I only feed my bubble tip once every 6-8 weeks. When I use to feed more often the bugger split. I did not want more in the tank as I prefer corals.
Just trying to save them for now. Seems so much water exchange the tank wants to cycle again
