maybe you missed what i mentioned earlier... maybe you don't think it is feasible.. i don;t know but i am throwing at you again...

three huge redlegged hermits could make for many dead smaller hermits within a 20 gal tank in very short order.
if there is nothing for them to eat they will eat one another even faster than they normally do.

Yup, I hear ya there brother. I dropped a crap load of blue legs and 15 redlegs into my tank. Man talk about D-Day. I think I'll stick to snails

Red Sea is the best I can do where I live. There is not even a lfs in my town...I have to travel to another town to even buy a fish! I'll use up the Red Sea, then try to find something else somewhere else. At least the Red Sea eased my mind and with the anemone showing back up, that is a good sign...and it ate well. The new light just might let me keep it.

I do like Salifert...I've only had one that I got after a 3-hour drive to Chattanooga, TN. I'm not able to get that far for now...but biowheel comes off today....and I'm going on an hour trip to hunt a clownfish (or two), a coral, and hopefully a feather duster or large shrimp. I don't want to put anything too small with the damsel. He's lived there 5 years...my guess is he thinks the whole tank is HIS!

Thanks again to everyone....if anyone has more ideas or comments, throw them my way

its called mail order....try it...its usualy cheaper than your lfs even including shipping and it comes to your door.... seriously the red sea are a waste of your money and time.

I mail order quite frequently...but considering we also have poor internet service in my area, waiting on dial-up is not fun! I also use Ebay frequently and order many drygoods...but since I needed a test kit immediately, I grabbed one up. Will get a better one when the $50 kit runs out. Besides...I don't like snail mail.

Thanks again

Update on the filter...it is not a biowheel after all. I have inspected it finally and it is a Regent impeller driven filter that holds two media cartridges, usually containing carbon....so, it more like an overflow box that services only one tank.

I'm adding a couple of percula clowns today...we'll see how they do.
