29 gallon build that’s been running almost 2 years. I went through the ugly stage and ran into some hair algae problem but got through that. I was seeing a lot of growth in my corals and that halted and I lost my Duncan coral and some zoas. I just really started testing and noticed my alk was extremely low. I am on the route on getting this fixed and hope to see my corals take off soon. Posting here to be able to see my growth! Any stocking ideas? I need to get another mate for my clown (first one died about 4 months ago). And was thinking one more fish and maybe an emerald crab. Any tips/recommendations appreciated!

Current stock:
Clown Fish
Cleaner Shrimp
Pistol Shrimp
Yasha Goby
Urchin
5-7 snails

Blastos
Palys
Zoas
GSP
Green Kenya Tree (newly added)
