I do nothing but

2x week- add filtered tap water + all for reef, clean glass with magnet cleaner

2-3x a month - take handful of algae from scrubber and throw it out

Daily check corals and make sure there isn’t any warfare. I had switch some things around this week because apparently scoly and Cynarina are not friends. And a hammer extended sweepers and stung a neighbor

Needed space for some new large corals that arrived today, so I removed a rock overgrown with gsp and sold it to the LFS for 50$

They still are adjusting and hopefully will be comfortable and fully inflated in a day or two

Also picked up this guy from the LFS

I have said it before that "goni" is sweet!

That little plate coral is nice too. I have done the more "common" ones in the past standard, purple/green, orange, They do ok for a while for me maybe 8-16 months then fail. Thinking since I put them on the sand it was eventually the sand getting on them and irritating them. If I try again ill put them on a nice flat rock.
