Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

Nope.
Not the macro!! Hope you didn't have Dragons breath. That would've been a real shame.
 
Ever had a morning that something was off in your tank? The kind of off that alarms you. I had one today.
 
I didn't have time to test anything. I just did what every newbie does I guess. I changed the water/filter in record time. It looks fine now. Who knows. Maybe I just woke them up too early.
 
I'm wondering if the new coral additions depleted something? If so, should I change my water 2x a week instead of 1? Or increase the amount I change once a week?
 
Or, did you have a nightmare?
It's so hard to be patient, yet instead of that I've been wasting money on stuff before I get a new tank, grr. I can't wait for the 30 gallon peninsula that RS'll be building me. Some day. It will happen.
 
Gsp was knocked off the rock. Clown was on the sandbed. Not his normal spot to sleep. Maybe it's nothing. Maybe they had a party? Nothing is amiss now. No spots or any unusual behavior. Maybe I was just way off on my gut feeling.
 
Do check ammonia jus cuz. And I like to pay attention to the smell of the tank. the sleeping fish is a bit odd, but..
