That sailfin has a heavy case of HLLE. What foods are you feeding it ?
It's actually getting better, its not the foods, I was running too much carbon and it actually started from QT copper treatment.
I feed frozen foods with selcon added

The top tank had a seam failure in early Nov I had to take all the scape, corals and fish out. The new tank was started in late Nov. It did give me a chance to redo the aquascape. I had all my old rock and sump material so restart was easy. My corals are 70% into the new tank. They were saved and stored at a friends house. Hopefully next year we will see less drama and more progress.

like the frag racks, I just picked up the green ones myself.
Which one?
The one in the middle is the esshops rack, which I got first.... but the magnet isn't quite strong enough. I usually end up putting my magnetic scraper under it to support it. That's a fail.

The one on the lower right is the locking corallivore rack. The magnet on that one holds great.

The black corner rack on the left is a 3D printed one from ebay. That one also has two magnets and holds fine.
