Fish Poop is the best coral food.

The Angel poop I dose into my tank contains zoa and acan extract :D

And I love to overstock fish !!!
Fadi, how the heck do you collect Angel poop to dose back into the tank!? Lol

Geometric hawkfish, yellow assessor, neon goby.

All three aren't too big, are red and perchy, or useful fish cleaners. Also calm and good community fish.

I think people understock tanks. More fish = richer life for fish. Imo
Interesting you mention Neon Goby. I never saw any before this last week.
I just started 4 in my QT. 2 for me, and 2 for a buddy.
Super Small....Creepy, but Cool. Remind me of the days I had fresh Water type.
They came from LFS which got them from Proaquatix Breeder.

First observation is they are territorial amongst themselves. Not vicious fighting, but a bit of brief chasing, and then they calm down and hug. (Seem to be pairing up)

Agree @WallyB about the Neons. Frankly, I had fresh for so many years on and off, they are too close to the many tetras I have already owned.

Nice! The Cardinal in the middle was the tough one. Camouflaged.

Having had them for many years, I know what to look for in pics for them ;)

Yeah Neon's can be grumpy towards each other but mostly are very relaxed fish. My poor neon was way smaller than those, he was so small parts of him were still translucent. He spent the first 4-5 months of his life outsmarting my bangaii. my bangaii was 110% convinced the neon was food lol. He would hitch rides on my larger wrasse too. Very cool fish!

id recommend the same fish for you if you're wondering! (Geometric Hawk / Yellow Assessor).

Had some natural sunlight coming into the tank this afternoon, so I thought I would get some pictures.

The Bubble Tip Anemone, as you can see, is losing his bubbles over the past week. Does not bother me, I may even prefer it more stringy. I know there is no definitive answer to why this happens, but there were two variables over the past week. One was the addition of the Spotcinctus Clownfish that has now lived in the anemone for one week. Second was the anemone got some seriously meaty food for the first time as I fed LRS Reef Frenzy heavily last week. That feeding has ended, so if the bubbles return, I can consider that.

One other interesting thing, my carnivorous Midas Blenny seems to love seaweed. Nice!

Keep an eye out on the magnet that’s inside the tank.

I went thru 2 of those feeders in my last tank and the magnets ruptured and blew out the back.

It will start to swell before it blows out.
