Currently have a 120g with 30 or so Nems and recently added 15 clowns.

Tank has been up for about 4 or so months.

Here are my test results:

Phosphate 0.06 ppm
Nitrite ULR 7 ppb
Nitrate 0.03 ppm
Magnesium 1320 ppm
Calcium 428 ppm
Ammonia 0.07 ppm

Forgot to mention I'm running a bag of carbon!

Few days ago Ammonia was at 0.09 ppm

Should I been adding micro bacteria or anything daily or weekly?

Thanks!

What are nems? I need whatever those corals are ASAP

And dang you must love clownfish! lol

That tank is incredible. How is your sand so clean? We've been struggling with keeping algae off ours
Nems = Anemones

The others corals are GSP (Green star polyps) the green grassy looking ones at the bottom

To keep the sand clean I use "Printed Reefs" sand shifter thingy with the 45 degree claw
