Salt change went very well and things look awesome in all tanks. Acros still holding strong and encrusting and getting bigger. The salt killed me on everything. But kept a clear head and was able to get a solution and execute the plan. Now its a night and day difference that I am seeing. So now I am ready to sit back.

Is that a haddoni carpet anemone I saw peaking in one of those pics? I have one that I like, but he's eaten two damsels, a goby and a blenny. Now he's banished to a basket where the fish can't get to him.

Yes it is so far so good. I have a mandarin I worry about but the mandarin doesnt like that area due to flow so it works.

I think it's a risk you just have to acknowledge in keeping carpet nems. I had a watchman goby for over a year with the carpet, and then one day he got spooked by a tang that was harassing him, and swam right into the carpet. Some fish seem relatively aware to stay away. I worried most when introducing a brand new fish to the tank.

Was able to snag a few caps that I needed from the loss. Green cap from @rajah , orange from @Rigo07 , and a nice I am hoping plating graft from a trade in deal. The red I have is healing up nicely from everything.
