Bought a used red sea 170 on June 8th 2023 with a few corals and a few extras. I have a kessil 350 tuna blue. A octo protein skimmer. Octo return pump with controller. The tank is 2 years old with some live Rock from the previous owners friends 10 year old tank. I see I have a few brissle worms big and small. I have a Lil hermit crab and a huge sea snail ...
The corals that came with are as show. If u can help identify that would be awesome.

The first four pictures are from the seller. I have since added a few corals from local stores in the bay area in California. Also a cleaner shrimp. This last pic is the current state. Also. I have my first delivery today. Can't wait. First big online order.
Any pointer or good advice more then welcome.
