Hi guys, I have been scouring the threads for awhile now, in search for potential solutions. This is my first post and I have finally decided to ask for some help. I have a 180 gallon reef aquarium I bought second hand. I have owned the tank for about 2 years or so now. I started with wet rock...

Ive been doing this 8-9 years now and haven't lost anything yet but fish but other than my candy canes I don't have the super explosive growth some people see in their reef tanks with my...
