I would get rid of the xenia, it grows like weed and will soon over run a small nano reef.

My other suggestion would be to just let things settle and only make small changes at a time. Adding stock slowly.

You can get some nice nano fish, I have a lovely Yellow Coral Goby for example. Something like this would be a suitable addtion.

You will also have uglies to contend with, so you will need more snails.

Good luck

I know the xenia is crazy but its one of my favoritesssss, commence pouting face. I have kept them in my nanos before untill they outgrow, then i move them to a bigger reef. i have him isolated so hopefully that helps! i do need more snails, havent gotten around to it, the one i have, has been sitting in the same spot on the glass for 2 days. love the yellow coral goby! i will add him to my list!
