The tank has a Remora hang-on protein skimmer manufactured by Aqua C which does a good job removing particulate matter and nutrients from the water. Very good skimmer.

The photo to the left illustrates a mushroom soft coral and a leather coral.

The polyps are extended on the corals as they feed through the water column.

The tank also includes a Marineland® Emperor particulate matter filter on the back in addition to two power filters for water movement across the sides of the tank.

I do a partial water change of about 4 gallons once a month. I do not use reverse osmosis water...just tap water for the water changes and have had no problems with that method.

For the most part, my system is very stable and I don't mess with it much except to do water changes and top offs.

I do tend to have Aptasia issues from time-to-time. A good Peppermint Shrimp takes care of that problem unless another critter decides to eat it for a snack.

I feed my Tang and other fish dry food once-a-day. Every other day or so, I add some packaged dry green algae to the tank. I'll also feed them frozen brine shrimp.

I don't do anything with the Anemones. They eat (or filter) whatever is in the water column and seem to do just fine.
