So far so good. Both clowns have settled in well. One loves to nest in the sand bed and sometimes seems to flash. Will keep an eye on this but I think it may just be a quirky fish.
Two nassarius one skunk cleaner shrimp four trochus and four blue leg hermit crabs
One zoa one hammer one trumpet one Kenya tree one clove polyp one mushroom. All corals have been very happy so far but of course time will tell. Only dosing alk at this point. Did my first water change yesterday and everything seems to have settled back in. Absolutely mesmerized by this tank! Thank you all for the advice up to this point and more is always appreciated.

I have quirky flashers too! At first I panicked and thought ‘0h no ich!’ but it seems they use that as a warning to others that they want their space. Who knew?!!
