So I got a bubble anemone yesterday and thankfully it seems to like the corner by itself and not all over the other corals.

What kind of light you have on the 10g planted?

And Caleb, couldn't you get a bit more fish in your 75g? Seems really understocked.

You are correct. I've been dealing with columnaris and I'm leaving the display the way it is for a few more weeks till I'm sure it's gone. I'm planning either on a bichir or kuhli loaches. Not decided yet.

Bichir, with the discus?

I agree, and why not a schooling fish? Can't go wrong with discus and some tetras. Or maybe angels? I have also heard of people adding guppies or another livebearer to their discus tanks so the discus have a steady source of live food whenever they want it.

Breaking the feel from ordinary schooling fish. I like oddballs :)

Oddballs are great! Oddball schoolers: Ghost catfish, Indian glassfish (not dyed of course), Hyphessobrycon sp. "HY511" (great little rare tetra, super hardy), mexican cavefish (don't know about it much, but I have to guess it would work. Or maybe a back ghost knife? Kinda hard to feed but if you're feeding a ropefish then it should be no problem. Can't wait to see your eventual stocking options.

After quick research, we seen simplydiscus had several members who kept Senegal's with their discus. Only time mine has bothered anything was small livebearers (mollys) and that was my fault as I apparently wasn't feeding it enough. My Senegal is housed with a medium-large Angel with no issues.

Thats awsome, man. My buddy rossco's ornate bichir destroyed his 2 discus ina 125L. so he moved it... Then it killed his jewel. Thats abt all my experience with bichirs, lol.

Well maybe I will need to do some more research on the bichir lol. From what I know, they are pretty peaceful unless it's fish they can eat or they are not being fed enough.

Also picked up some rotala rotundifolia while I was getting crickets for the FBTs.

I'll put a photo up once I get it planted. It's going in the 10g
