I find the best sand sifting snails are nassarius vibex. They'll also devour anything that dies in the tank. So they double as a great cleanup crew.
I'm not a fan of hermits at all.

Have you tested your nitrates and phosphates first? Determine the problem, then you can address it.

Fromia Monilis (http://www.edge-of-reef.com/asteroidi/ASTFromiamonilisen.htm)

A beautiful star. Difficult to keep. Similar to Blue Linckia's in difficulty.

I'm sorry to hear this. I hope you didn't take him out immediately. Fish have been known to knock themselves out with a blow like that. Sometimes they come around after a couple of minutes.

Asahi, it sounds as if you've got it all down. Good job thinking it through.

You don't need a powerful pump in your RO/DI tub. Just enough to get the water up the tubing and into your M tank. ...

Asahi, the dual switches are for redundancy. If one switch fails (gets stuck in the on position) the second switch will shut off the topoff, preventing a flood (and huge swing in salinity).

It's very easy to pair up a single clown. I've done it numerous times. What you should do is get rid of the Ocellaris. Then wait awhile until your Percula morphs into a female.
