Same thing but red stony to meWhen I first got my tank, I was driving by and saw a random fish store. I had my fiancé with me and we decided to pop in and take a look. She found a chocolate chip starfish and really wanted to get it for my tank. My tank was fairly young but already had corals. It was cheap so I told her if it’s reef safe we can get it. We asked the fish keeper and was assured that it was reef safe and we should have no problems. So I bought it. Luckily at my next trip to my lfs I showed my normal fish keeper a photo and he immediately told me it was not reef safe. Needless to say, I ended up donating it and I believe he became Harlequin shrimp food.
i have heard that some* fish stores will say anything to make a sale. But I blame my self for the impulse buy, and should have done my own research. That was a cheap lesson, but since then I do my own research before any purchase. (Thank you reef2reef!)
What is there something wrong with that“You can just buy one coral.”
I have given up on Anemones. I love them but they are just time bombs waiting to go off unless you have a tank that has a lot of safe guards. The last anemone I had was an 8" across green carpet anemone and for some reason after several months of staying in one spot he decided to move up and get out of the tank. I caught him about 4 times in a row and moved him to locations that I thought he might like. Then on the fifth night he got to the overflow and somehow managed to get halfway through one of the 3mm wide slits. I did not know that it was possible for him to do that but he did.“That anemone will be fine, they are really easy to care for.”

In the morning I had to stop the Return pump and leave him dry on the overflow side to force him to come back into the tank, after three hours of occasionally wetting him down and he eventually came back in but not before releasing a bunch of toxins into the water and killing several fish. I am just done with them!
Lol I wonder how many people just pulled out their calculators."You don't need to test both Calcium and Magnesium. Just test Magnesium, and divided that by 3 and you get calcium."
My personal favourite“Purchase the seahorse, it will do fine with your wrasse and tang.”
