No worries! He looks great! Probably going to go for more programmable lights this winter myself. Ended up with the gramma and looking into his cave with the flash light I saw him. He’s maybe at max 1.5 inches. So super tiny. But I sure like him a lot.

A single AI Prime 16HD would probably be perfect for your tank.

That’s what I’m thinking. Wanting to find a gently used one

Hello Parker. You have a good attitude and will do well reefing. I tried Dalmation Molly's in my reef and after several weeks turned all black. Then my 3 stripe damsels killed them off. You have nice clowns, but don't get any more damsels they are bullies. i only have two 3 stripe Damsels, 2 clowns for 5 years now, had 5 blue/green chromis and now have 1 left, 1 flame hawk, 1 filefish, and my Yellow Tang.

So it has been a while but a lot as changed. I found out what the issue was! My refractometer was broken. My water was 1.040 and the only thing that turned me on to this was the fact that I tested the stores water when I brought coral home and it read 1.015. After calling the store and figuring it out over a week I dropped the salinity down. I let it sit for a week and then got corals. Which are all doing great! I got GSP, Xenia and brown palys at first and they were thriving so after two weeks I got a finger leather, sunny D’s two unknown zoas and fireworks cloves. Everything is doing great other than the GSP which has been closed since I cleaned hair algae off of it. Right now my CUC is
1 scarlet hermit
1 blue legged hermit
4 nerites
2 Astreas
1 turbo

my stock is
1 clown
1 watchman goby

corals
GSP
Xenia
Brown palys
Fireworks Cloves
2 unknown zoas
1 sunny D zoas
1 stylopora

Well Big Bertha the turbo has cleaned the entire tank in two days but managed to make my finger leather very angry and now hasn’t opened in two days.
