So this is my first salt tank ever. I'm taking advice on to be better after following this page for some time.

So this is 2months post initial setup.
First chamber chemi pur with sponge.
2nd chamber chemi pur with skimmer icecap k1 neo
3rd chamber live rock about 3pounds in big chunks. and lighting/ also have a kessel 80 with red sea 50 on auto timer for 10hrs a day.
4th chamber is UV light and heater 78 degrees. and pump. Uv light is turned on for about 8hours after I do 5gallon water change 1x a week with ro water. Just because I had a nasty algae bloom

I use instant ocean reef crystals.
Feed my clown shrimp which he's really good about taking care of his anemone first. And my duncan coral is definitely growing a new head after 2 weeks and I havnt fed it.

Ammonia is 0 nitrites 0 ph 8.4. Nitrates 5ppm
Corraline algae is flooding the rocks finally.
