hey, been away from the site for a while, been busier than the proverbial one-legged man. i have a question about my green bubbletip anemone. i went on vacation back in june for a few weeks, and when i left, my bubbletip was huge, dark green, and really didn't look like a bubbletip (meaning it had longer tenticles). when i got back, it had changed colors, almost a clear to chartruese green, and was a lot smaller, and had the classic bubble tips. any ideas what changed this thing? lack of proper feeding? i had someone tending the tank, but they didn't personally feed the anemone. i lost a few small sps frags, my tubipora took a hit, and my xenia looks pathetic. do i need new bulbs? since i've been back and personally over-seeing the feedings, the xenia looks a tad better, and my anemome about devoured my hand feeding it last nite. am i on the right track or is something else needed? i haven't tested the water yet, so i have no idea the parameters, i was looking for upfront advice first.
