Hey guys. First time posting here, so excuse me of any etiquette mistakes. I set up a 72g bowfront (fowlr) about 6 years ago and have been enjoying it every since. So I'm not exactly new. But the past few years I've neglected it. I'm in the process of revamping it and making things right, and keeping them right. System is a 72g bowfront with a 20g sump, reef octo 150 skimmer, 125lbs live rock, ~2" sand bed, and 2 3200 gph powerheads. Algae every where, sand bed is very dirty, and the only inhabitants are 2 clown fish and coral banded shrimp. Nitrates are of course too high, so a few larger water changes over the next few weeks are planned. Any tips on getting her cleaned up? As soon as I get my nitrates down I am planning on getting a CUC (looking for advice on this), vacuuming up top layer of sand, and getting a filefish (slight aiptasia problem) as my first addition in a long time. Just looking for advice and opinions on this and my possible stocking list:
2 clown fish
Filefish
Orange spotted goby
Royal gramma
3 Yellowtail Damsels
One spotted foxface
Flame angelfish
And possibly 2 Firefish
