Hello everyone! I have been lurking this forum for over a year now, and decided to finally make an account. I have been keeping fish only saltwater tanks for about 5 years. 4 months ago I decided to make the switch to corals. I have a 32g biocube with a media basket and tunze 9001 protein skimmer. I have been taking things very slow and only have 2 corals so far. I have been having constant algae problems in the tank.. I think it may be from my aquascape and having too much live rock piled up. My frogspawn doesn't open nearly as much as it used to either, but my hammer coral is doing great.

I am just using an api test kit right now that is hard to read but I ordered new ones from Red Sea and Hanna.
Anyway just wanted to say Hi and would love some input!
