Nice ricordea! Is it actually kind of blu-ish green? Just wondering bc cameras can sometimes change colors slightly.

Fts? Always exciting to see a tank fill up with coral and other inverts!

I really like how dynamic the scape is, it has lots of height and depth, makes it seem much bigger than it is!

Hmm... As I'm sure you know cut down on feeding, WCs, and always use RO. Hope it gets better!

No feedings really besides two pellets dropped in the other day as there is only one skunk cleaner and 3 hermit crabs and one Nass snail. Water changes every two to three days. Reef crystals and rodi water. I'll snap pic in the morning when I get to work. Looks like a small amount of hair algae and some other that has always shown up at the beginning of my young tanks

Just added two Astraea snails and they are already making short work of the algae
