Re: small tank
ive had almost every size saltwater tank up to my 3000 gallon concrete display tank down to a 5 gallon mini reef the smaller the harder the nitrates and ammonias build way faster than most filters can handle even after being properly cycled and if the filter can handle it than it is pushing to much gph making the current in your tank way to strong i would do a 29 minimum running about 80-100 gph skilter filters are great for smaller tanks as for your anenomes from experience ive found it is harder to keep anenomes than it is to keep coral their light requirements are much more refined although colinization of 2 clowns in a 29 gallon tank is higly unlikely if they do simple mushroom coral will do the job just as well ive had perculas make homes out of artificial anenomes from walmart before too good luck if you can spare a couple extra bucks an eclipse or other nano cube will help you since you have been reading i feel no need to go into the importance of tank cycling but it seems others are trying to get you to start cycling with a damsel or something live rock and a small peice of market shrimp does the trick and its more humanoh and in small tanks live rock will prove to be very beneficial
