That's undoubtedly overstocked. Even if the filtration can handle all those fish which is quite impressive with all the waste manufactured and food needed, other problems are bound to arise. Territorial issues and space. There's not enough room for each fish to claim it's home in the aquarium...

40 breeders have great dimensions. I have a wp25 on my 5 ft tank and it's plenty so for a 40 gallon it should be most sufficient. Good luck on the stand. Let's see the progress when you're done!

Cute little tank. Like the green sinularia.

No problem. Look forward to see its progress. Soon you'll have a reef in every room haha

Never heard this before. An anemone's diet consists of various types of meaty foods. Although not required because they also carry out photosynthesis, feeding doesn't have negative effects. They capture fish and shrimp in the wild, so I don't see how it can cause stress.

Great choice. Why'd you want to convert? Is it going to be a mixture of different coral types or SPS dominant? Cool tank.

That's great. Hope it goes well. Mysis or cut up krill or silversides every once in a while would make it happy for sure.

Amen. Work great too.

It was the finnex HMO heater w/ digital led controller. Somehow it was out of water and burned which is logical. For the most part it's a good heater. I've had accuracy problems with the finnex HMA w/ analog controller though.

Thank you :) trying out a new one (cobalt I think) since the finnex burned. This is actually a good heater for a seahorse tank since it's flat and thin so they cant wrap their tails around it.

Got a few new things and thought I'd make a little update. Seahorses are great, but temp is low at 68 so slowly raising it up.

Have an interesting light red macroalgae growing on my powerhead. Wanted to know if anyone has a clue what is b/c idk how it got there.

I see. Looks like 2 jebao wp40s is a lot for 70 gallons..I think I'll get 1 of each.

Not sure which one to get for my 70 gallon, 5 foot long reef tank. Leaning towards the wp40 but not sure if it would be too much? Thanks.

Fo sho, here's an update! Seahorses are eating well, but only when we pit food in their little "troughs" or shells. They'll wait by it when they're hungry..so cute. The female really blends in well with this leather! Also it seems that she's the queen and the monti is her throne :D
