Thank you! Right now I’m planning to keep adding LPS mostly until the tank is more established. If I can maintain everything and see good results I would like to upgrade the light and dabble in SPS for the upper portion of the rock. Time will tell what I end up being able to do. My main goal is just maintaining consistency right now.
