$10 acropora frag I am trying to save. Polys open less then 12 hours when it was added to the tank.

I am attempting the corals first method. Tank was running for about 2 weeks, dosed fritz turbo start twice (about 6x labeled amount) then started with rock flower anemones, zoas and sea fans. Using these corals to gage how ready the tank has been. Now about 6 weeks in, still no fish. Dosed vibrant about 3x the labeled amount. Changing polyfill every 3-4 days. Never saw a readable ammonia in testing this far. Feeding corals and anemones every 3rd/ 4th day. Feeding phytoplankton and PE mysis. Around week four added tiger pods. Water changes ~50% once a week. (5gallon)
