Shew's Reef - 20g Waterbox Cube

Hard to imagine it's been a month already!

Some updates:

The original Bicolor branching hammer died (he decayed over 3 days, I think he was too stressed from shipping). WWC were awesome and they sent me a replacement, with 2 heads! I've been annoyingly trying to find somewhere with low enough flow for it. Below is a video of where I have it placed right now. If there's any ideas out there let me know!

I also got a torch! Aussie Torch, green base and yellow tipped. love it, so beautiful, and acclimated to my tank super fast.

The two fish have also been getting along (fingers crossed), hopefully they stay that way!

I also have been having some issue with my spearmint monti. It has a bit of grey on it, any ideas?

This is partially why I wanted to turn my powerhead on (it's been off until this week when I got my torch). I felt that the monti wasn't getting enough flow, I know they require higher flow than other corals.
