Welcome to R2R and the salty world. Nice tank. Good to see young people taking on the responsibility that goes with marine aquariums. Keep it up, but keep it slow.
Lots of knowledgeable and helpful people here who will support and advise you when needed.

A suggestion to not stock anymore fish or coral until tank matures a little more. Looking good thus far.

You can also post some up close pictures of the corals in question that you think are dying. You will get lots more views and assistance.
Here are the pictures. I really don’t know what type of coral they are either. But they aren’t growing and I understand that it takes a long time but they’ve also been turning grey. Thanks for your help!!

Hi everybody! I’m a young (16 in December) newbie here. My dad did a lot of freshwater tanks, but this is both of our first time doing a saltwater tank. We have a 32 biocube. (Side note: yes we are probably overstocked my dad likes getting new fish a little too much even though I say we have enough and loves to get them without doing much research!) We have a fire clam (hard to keep yes I know! Refer to side note) 4 orange ocellaris clownfish and one black and white one. Again I know not recommend but they really do seem to get along besides some problems I’m having with my black and white one. I’ll start a new thread on that one. 2 blue chromis. A diamond goby. A royal gamma. A purple firefish goby. Lots of snails and hermies. 2 Feather dusters. A coral banded shrimp (he’s getting way to big!) Two coral that I have no clue what they are and possibly dying? A little duncan with 3 heads(for lack of better word) and a hammerhead coral. And an orange sponge that is probably dying. And lotsss of questions. I’m really looking forward to all of your advice and help!
