Equipment list:

Ruby systems elite sump
Bubble magus nac 7
MP40wes
Tek 6 bulb t5

Any tips for SPS? (I am troubleshooting mine a bit)

Well what seems to be the problem? And I am by no means an sps expert, so many of the other reefers on here are inspirations to me and how I approach this hobby...its a huge science experiment lol. What I've gathered so far for sps are clean water, good lighting and most of all, and the one that I'm having some trouble with, stability.

I made my water too clean (hardly fed anything).

I'm feeding a lot more, but several had already bleached. I think I am almost where I want to be.

I'm going to pick up some tester frags to see if they hold their color (instead of waiting months to see if the paled ones come back)
