Some sort of feather duster and sponge ?

Am having that kind of seather duster and sponge in my fudge and now i can see some in my display should i be concern

totally normal. healthy filter feeders of a reef. the sponges could potentially smother your corals, but you can easily scrape them off.

Ok sounds good and if am having to much of those "feather duster" in my display can i add something to take care of them naturally ?

they will die off eventually, with some sticking around. to reduce their numbers, reduce broadcast feeding, or feeding powdered coral foods as this will fuel their growth.

wrasses

I can not add any more fish i already have 5 into my 25 g

ookk, you can introduce natural predators like certain types of wrasses, crabs, or butterflyfish that eat them, or manually remove them by carefully extracting their tubes with a small net, while also managing water parameters to limit their food supply by reducing nutrient levels in the tank,best bet I have found is to put a dab of super glue gel over their opening,

why is this yellow??

Ok i only add 4 ml of red sea ab+ every 2 week and reef roid one time per 2 week i feed my fish 2 time a day half a cube of veggie or brine or mysis shrimp is that to much ?

i would completely cut out the AB+, and reef roids for now maybe at least a month or two. you can continue broadcast feeding the veggie/brine/mysis but try to keep it "less messy" so the residual/leftover food doesn't get to the dusters as easily
