This month is the one year anniversary of my 105 Gallon mixed reef tank.
Fishes;
(1) Powder Brown Tang, (1) Hippo Tang, (1) Fox face Rabbit, (1) Melanurus Wrasse, (1) Chalk Bass, (1) Sharknose goby (2) Occularus Clowns, (6) Blue Green Chromis

Inverts;
(1) Coral Banded Shrimp, (1) Cleaner Shrimp, (1) Feather Duster, various hermits and snails.

My current struggles are green algae on the rocks and red algae in the sand.

Happy anniversary! Looks like it's time to clean your powerhead. Also if you scrape the glass that will eliminate a lot of your green algae.
 
Congratulations! It is no small accomplishment making it to 1 year anniversary. Good job
 
Thanks guys . I’ll work on getting that powerhead in some vinegar, but the coralline gives it such character.
Question? Is my tank overstocked? A co-worker left the hobby and I inherited his livestock. Now I’m concerned that I have too much. Tank is 105 with 40 gallon sump.
