Here is my 12 gallon JBJ nano cube I am in the process of turning into a hammer dominated tank. The only modifications are adding the surface skimmer to the intake and upgrading the pump to a MJ900 with a Spinstream Rotating Nozzle. The first chamber in the rear is filler most of the way with a coarse sponge and the middle compartment is filled with Marinepure Biospheres, which I cannot say enough about. Currently stocked with a pair of bullet hole clownfish, royal gramma, and neon goby. I still need to move some things around and fill in the right side of my rock with more hammers but here is the progression so far.

Excellent progression. :D

Are you still using the stock PC lighting?

Do you have a water change routine.

Yes, Stock lighting. As for water changes, usually every week I'll change a gallon. But I fed heavy, and added three fish during my 3 week winter break and never did a water change and still couldn't get any readable ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, or phosphates thanks to the marine pure

Had the same tank, my Ricordia and LPS loved the PC lighting. I kept a Derasa clam in tank as well. Your LPS and Ricordia obviously are thriving, they are just beautiful.

Finally found the electric green hammers I've been searching for to finish the tank
