OK I have two adults, haven't seen any babies form or seen them split. May consider trading one...

Hi Jackie! If you don't mind, tell me all the mods that you made.

I added 1 blue and one white stunner strip to the existing fixture, and I have found that it is still, not enough light for the corals I want to put in it. I added two more little pumps in addition to the one it came with. I added a piece of acrylic to the opening at the top of the lid so that water didn't evaporate so fast.

I know you don't have it anymore, but any pointers you have would be nice. Thanks

I replaced the main pump with a maxi-jet 606 it will fit if you remove the front and back covers of the pump, it gave me much better flow.
My husband made a custom metal piece to attach a 12k white/445nm panorama pro and a magenta/445nm stunner for the lighting it was excellent at growing things.
I think those were the only things I did, I removed the sponge in the back and put rock rubble but I think that's it:)

Oh its a keeper, just not very obedient, I keep yelling at it to move where I can see it but it doesnt seem to listen...probably mimicking my kids.

That is one nice thing about this tank, the back is the front if you have it located in the right place Bryce. That is an insanely cool anemone. Take very good care of it.
