No only use ro/di water only... ro/di water has 0 (ppm)parts per million of total dissolved solids, tap water has an average of at least 127 ppm of total dissolved solids this is the bad stuff, plus using dechlorinator will affect a skimmer where it will not work efficiently a skimmer is a must...

Pics would be great but it depends it may move or it may stay in the same spot depending on lighting and waterflow.... but as long as you have good water parameters, lighting and adequate flow he should be fine...

that's what it is!!!!

normal....to keep this from happening I place a flat rock under the sand bed, a rock thin enough to have approx. 1/2 in. of sand on top of the rock. The anemone can attach to that rock and still be in the sand bed where they like to be. a lot of times the sand bed is too deep for the anemones...

The white cloudiness is a bacterial bloom. The lysol apparently killed some of the bacteria, and now they are scrambling to maintain the bioload of the tank. I would say remove any bioload (feeding ect...), and run carbon until it disappears, with waterchanges and keep an eye on water parameters...

They are grazers and harmless to your system....
