The Anemone the other day made his way into one of the vortech pumps. I think I got here in time as he wasn't cut/hurt by the pump blades and I turned the pumps off and got him out. He was totally deflated and sad looking.
I moved him to the live rock and left the flow off until he attached. Now he's got his foot well into the rock and is puffed up and looking good. I get the feeling he won't be moving anywhere anytime in the near future.
I also added a Blue Spotted Puffer, a Blue Streak Cleaning Wrasse, and two Yellow Tangs. The tank is heavily stocked but everybody has a hiding hole and room to swim. The plan is honestly to get a much larger tank within the next 12 to 24 months - I'm thinking on the order of 250~300 gallons.
I built a temporary chaeto reactor to help keep nutrients in-check. The light is a grow bulb - but I have a Skimz MBR157 coming that I will put inside the sump and will use it's built in lighting.
