30 Gallon Not So Deep Blue

Absolutely beautiful – don't change a thing!
 
You are successfully keeping a set of mixed corals which is much harder than keeping softies, LPS, or SPS in dedicated-only tanks. Your parameters must be spot on. Can you give us some pointers that are unique to your husbandry?
Honestly I just keep it basic. I run an oversized skimmer. I dose BRS 2 part and perform a minimum 10 gallon water change usually I do more if I feel like I've over fed. I took it really slow. I feel like waiting for your tank to mature enough to add coral especially SPS is difficult but a necessity. Running carbon is a must. I hope that helps.
 
Sadly I just moved 1 week ago and tore the tank down and sold all the livestock. I was heartbroken but the thoughts of building a bigger badder tank have me excited.
