Yeah I wouldn't attempt a Magnifica if you are not an expert and completely dedicated to them. It is also VERY hard to find a healthy specimen in the trade that isn't on its way out. Sometimes they...

Can an RBTA regain its color?

I have this RBTA that has been under power compacts for about 7 months, and in that time it lost a lot of its red color. I now have it under a 150 W 20K MH lamp hoping the color will come back. I...

That looks like something you'd see at a state aquarium. That is pretty awesome. If I could ever afford something like that I would totally build it.

I would say the 250W would be good for your tank. I personally think the 250 would be more beneficial than the 150. Just keep the tank cool

Yeah, heteractis magnifica and stichodactyla gigantea. Those two anemones are probably the hardest to keep alive in aquariums and need a large volume of water

Well if you're planning on changing your light, I would say 5-8 watts per gallon would be ideal. The aquascape seems fine to me. If you pile the rocks a little you can get the corals closer to the...

You can't keep any SPS or corals which require higher light, but I would suggest mushroom corals and various poylps. With the right selection and placement these can make a very beautiful aquascape
