Your salinity is too high ... It's should not be any higher than 1.025 ... Fish can go as low as 1.020 but inverts and corals like 1.025
Mines 1.026...i see sps tanks often at 1.027. Looks like his reads 1.025. Alk is high though if i read 16dkh right

I saw a black/onyx tang. They wanted 1,000.00. Uh, .... Does it cook?
Have you seen Powder Blue Tang or Purple Tang..they're a lot more reasonable than in the early 90s when I started with salt tanks..then the purple was 1300 I didn't have one..lol, the powder blue was around 300. I did have a powder blue but it came from a friend much cheaper.

Id love a purple tang. I wanted one and was told I needed to wait awhile so I am. Purple is my fav color :). Right now I give a list and ask which is the next best step for my fish family and I go by that. Was told no tang. So I shall wait. Here's MC Hammer. He's liking his new home

That's really nice! I will be adding a hammer shortly..(FYI) you might want to read about the purple tang before you add one they can be really mean..it's fine if you know ahead of time but not a good surprise. Powder Blue is one of my favs and you can get a small one for 35 now a large runs about 100. The tangs are very neat to watch as long as they stay healthy much easier these days! Not trying to talk you out of a purple either just didn't want you to be stressed by a bully in the tank. I had 7 tanks in the nineties all marine fish no reefs, it would've been so much easier and healthy with live rock..people didn't know then.
