Well, ammonia is still hanging around .25 for some reason... Nitrite finally dropped to 0, and nitrates are 20. Time for a water change?????

Rock work is getting covered in diatoms... Funny, I've never been so excited to see diatoms... Haha

Probably zoas at first, then after I know I can keep them healthy possibly some other softies...

I stated before that I really like candy canes and torch corals... But I'm not sure if my light will support them. I could use some help on that...
