Would love a tuxedo urchin but just don’t want it messing w my coralsNot sure what the algae is, but tbh there is no way of escaping all algae short of a good clean up crew. Consider an urchin, they are bulldozers.

Your tank has come a long way. Glad to see your nem is getting better. Put that duncan in a little more flow and he'll stream like a torch. Good luck.Update:
I have brought temp down to 25*C and I am starting to increase salinity slowly with evaporation
Blood shrimp(Sebastian) dissapeared completely (he didn’t jump as he’s nowhere on the floor near the tank)
Got an algae scraper with a blade, it is one of the best things I’ve ever bought! My glass is spotless!
Lost my nem, Found my nem lol, she’s doing great
Went to lfs yesterday and got 5 snails, a Duncan and a peacock wrasse
My Monti has started to pick up after moving it to an area with more light yesterday
Getting a clear plastic lid today
All Corals are doing great apart from my Xenia not sure why though?
still got the fuzzy brown stuff on rocks (really can’t figure out what this is, think I will post a thread see if anyone came help) and red slimy sand (Cyano I think or red hair algae)
He won't hurt them. Just fasten them down. Urchins are great!Would love a tuxedo urchin but just don’t want it messing w my corals
Thank you , I absolutely love DuncansYour tank has come a long way. Glad to see your nem is getting better. Put that duncan in a little more flow and he'll stream like a torch. Good luck.
I’ve moved to a bit more flow but I’m not sure what you mean by stream ?Your tank has come a long way. Glad to see your nem is getting better. Put that duncan in a little more flow and he'll stream like a torch. Good luck.
Show large polyp extensionI’ve moved to a bit more flow but I’m not sure what you mean by stream ?
Ah ok thanksShow large polyp extension
The polyp will open more and the tenticles will be more torch like. He may do well like he is and be beautiful. I like mine to move and sway a bit. He'll grow fast enough to be fun. Enjoy!I’ve moved to a bit more flow but I’m not sure what you mean by stream ?
Thank you! I can’t wait for him to growThe polyp will open more and the tenticles will be more torch like. He may do well like he is and be beautiful. I like mine to move and sway a bit. He'll grow fast enough to be fun. Enjoy!
Got a new lid today, still need to cut holes for the light and wires/cables e.g. but going to do that on Monday
Think my nem is moving up the rock too!
Thanks! He’s gone back to where he was now lol, I got so excited when I thought he was coming out I would love for my clowns to host in himI'm glad you hung in with the nem. I've been close to tossing one only to get 2 out of the deal. I'm glad your tank is progressing!
I've got a pair that wallow in palys. Lol. They're clowns. They'll find something they like. The living room tank has a pair in love with a shell with 2 fat rbta in there. I know you've worked hard for your nem to live. Good luck.Thanks! He’s gone back to where he was now lol, I got so excited when I thought he was coming out I would love for my clowns to host in him
(they’re trying to host a toadstool leather but they get upset when it closes up aha)

I’m glad to hear that, params seem fine, maybe it’s just stressClowns are weird - being in the corner is totally normal.
Doesn’t look like brown jelly - just like it’s very stressed. Check your params to make sure nothing is off. Medium light, low to medium flow.
