Moved a hammer that was under light in center of tank to the right already looking better. Next I’ll move the hammer up high in back somewhere else. it’s been looking unhappy!

1st mistake! I put the pump on a wifi power switch so that I could easily turn off and forgot the switch had a timer. So from midnight until I checked it 7;45 am sump pump was off. Uggh.

I got my whole system on govee wifi plugs

I really liked having the main pump on WiFi plug as I didn’t have to pull the plug (with wet hands). But something went wrong with the WiFi plug besides the 1st timer issue and I ditched it.

I've done tests on the one I use that has energy monitoring and when I turn the wifi off all the plugs stay on but make sure u get the one without surge protector If your on a gfci outlet those don't play good together

Decided to put algae scrubber mesh at an angle. This helps to quieten water drop sound, get better growth, and keep sump side clean. Win win win . Next I will replace with longer sheet of mesh since I can with angle approach.

Well I messed up. I realized that I had moved light down and increased intensity and was blasting reef. I don’t know for how long but it’s been a while. Was too strong. Monti were growing on sand bed like crazy. Rock had bleached out, candy canes were suffering. Well I raised light and decreased intensity. Meanwhile I also changed power heads flow. Well my other corals and rocks are looking better. But my blue green acro just lost all its skin and death is surely upon it.
