Well I have hopes that any Acros I get will have a chance this time. I got a cheapie Acro from another vendor and it’s been holding its own for almost 3 weeks and another one that’s been in the tank for about 10 days. Plus my Milka Stylo and Poci are looking good. Put the Acros in a place where my Acro chomping Damsels won’t go(the middle of the tank) and stylos and pocis have always grown pretty well for me and are ignored by said fish.

Looking at and comparing pictures, I'm very happy currently!

Our Sungod Milli is doing great and has great growth already! You can see its already encrusted on the glue it came on, it's only been 3 weeks!! Whaaaat :flushed-face: ?! I can't wait to see all the growth! @SBB Corals definitely bring the best to the table!

gonis look healthy but look like you have a lot of green hair algae around corals?
Yeah I do. Unfortunately there’s no way to set up a rodi due to weird faucets. I used to get distilled water for my smaller tank . Im gonna have to bite the billet and try that and I’m getting a bunch of cuc this week on top of what I have . I clean the rocks and such manually , in fact I’m planning on that this Saturday since it’s going to be so viciously cold . Any thoughts on things to knock it down better?

Looks like the turf algae in places I've been having problems with it lately too. Doesn't get as long as hair algae and like tough little tufts.

I have a turbo snail that likes it. But he only mows down so much. LOL

I was thinking of a sea lettuce slug. People say they are hardy and can't nuke the tank if they die. I like the idea just for the diversity it brings, but afraid it will blow all over the tank.

Urchins... I'd take either if I could find one locally.

Yeah basically that. My turbos(1 small one large)are good at mowing down flatter stretches . Also have some Astrea and Ceriths. Plus a small conch(tiger). My next plan is to get more cuc from ReefCleaners and a sand sifting cuke or two. Also take a chance maybe on sifting starfish. Which better option A:urchin or B: Sea Hare?

The Astrea snails I picked up really helped me with mine. I'm going to add more. Currently have 20 Astrea, 4 trochus, 10 cerith, 2 nassarius in our 65g. I'm not home currently, so i really hope they're doing their job lol

I have an Orange Spot Blenny. I don’t know if such a similar one would work in my tank, even with all the nooks and crannies. Tank is 36long/24wide/16.5 high
It's a tough choice. Mine's a 125 with a Lawnmower and Starry but it's a 6' tank.
