Quick question, I’ve set up a refugium for growing phytoplankton and other live foods for my display tank. I got several clams/mussels on my live rock. My question is will a protein skimmer skim out the phytoplankton if I put it in the refugium or in the display tank

Noticed this odd chunk of something sticking out of an anemone. Been there a few days. nem doesn’t seem stressed or anything. Took the pic when it was shrunk a bit so I could get a clear shot. It usually has nice filled out look with bubbles extended.

Anyone able to ID this?

will aiptasia X harm my condy, corals and other stuff? is it safe to use on my reef tank?

i just bought two new clowns for my tank. in the store they were hosting a condy. which is the same kind of anemone i have. will that fact make it more likely for them to host mine since they already recognized one as a host?
