So I got this gsp with a dragon eye Polyp frag on the same day it's been almost three months now and the gsp still hasn't come out, most of it is actually covered in coraline algae. Is this coral dead? Ie should I remove it?

My condy is perfectly healthy, it has doubled In Size since I got it And don't hate on the aptaisia, they are little bio filters

Bam months later everything is flourishing! Anemone is doing great, everyone else is Doing good too.

I have created caves? And my substrate (crushed coral) is not even 1.5" deep

Well I plan in getting some more pieces of live rock for it anyways poss 1 clown or some small inverts and a goby Prolly going to get some coral going too

Hey guys I'm loving the saltwater tank and the live rock! Every time I look in the tank something new has shown up on the rock Anyways I tried making my own protein skimmer today and it was actually working well but I need to get a suction cup to hold it in place But here is the tank! Tell me...

K as for media should I skip the sponge and stick with bio and chem?

K so I'm confused I have heard from some people that filters in a nano tank are not good because toxins build up in the filter chamber Is this true?

After I hatch my brine shrimp, ill filter them with a coffee filter and to store the extra I add some fresh water to the rinsed shrimp and freeze them in cubes
