I believe a yellow tang would make short work of it
I give Aiptasia-X two thumbs up. I picked some up on Saturday and went to war on my out break of tulip anemones. You squeeze a little on to the oral disk, they close up and never come back. 24 hours...
Along for the ride. I have been interested in Aiptasia-X since I have heard of it.
One thing to be aware of, is that fox face fish have venomous spines in their dorsal fins.
I think you would be ok with a yellow tang. I really like mine. He is always on the move and a striking color. Flasher wrasses are very cool as well. You may also consider a Fridmani Pseudochromis....
Here is a great site focused on the coral.

It is a flower pot coral.
Some corals will change colors under different power or spectrum. I believe it really has more to do the corals basic colors though. The search for colorful corals is endless.
I am sorry to hear that. Were they air bubble or bubble algae?
I am glad to here your fish is OK.
I feed my RBTA shrimp from the store about every three day. Make sure and thaw out the shrimp before feeding to the anemone.
The weather has changed. Posts seem to really drop off once the sun comes out. Don't worry, it's not your cologne. :)
Glad to hear the butterfly is doing well. Here is a link for Selcon.

There are two things that I have experienced which will cause Caulerpa to go asexual (turn white and dissolve). One is too high of temp (+84) or to dense of growth. Caulerpa needs to be trimmed in a...
It sounds more like a wound then a disease to me. I would just try keeping all the fish as healthy as possible and the water quality stable. You might try soaking the fishes food in Selcon just to...
I had a pair of purple firefish. They seemed to hide a great deal of the time which is too bad since they are so beautiful. I am not sure is this is common behavior or not.
Here are couple of my favorites:
Yellow Tang - Very active and bright fish. Can be the boss of the tank and need like a good size tank.
False Percula Clowns - Active and easy
Royal Gramma -...
I would go with the one in/ one out version. Both would work and I could see splitting it on a larger set-up but for a 55 I would just keep it simple.
One method of acclimating the tank to such a drastic change in light is by using layers of window screen and light diffuser panel aka "egg crate". Cut the egg crate to same size as the tank,...
I agree on Chaeto being the best choice for macro. I would go with sugar sand in the fuge, 3-4" deep if you can fit it. For a light on the fuge, I just use a basic clamp light with a spiral CF bulb....
