24 Gal Cube SPS nano reef tank

Tank front shot. I went and added two fish (blue damsel (being harassed by both the clown and purple sorry back who was mean to the clear shrimp. Plucked his whisker off once). So only two clownfish in the LpS tank. I hope they mate or something.

Minor changes due to removing water to catch the fishes.

Only thing I’ve added from the LPS tank is the brain coral.

I will be adding new white sands in both tanks. Very reason I hate color line algae and the amount for calcium deposits and the amount of work I am doing to clean, I think I will add sand. Will get 20lb bag and add 5lbs to the small tank and 25lbs to the 48.

I have not finished scraping off the coralline algae. Will finish some other day.

My parameters as of now. Cleaned out the probes best as I can few hours ago and added back. (Unable all the probes and soaked it on a conifer water for about 45mins. Cleaned. Added back and waited 30mins and re enabled. I don’t know what changed but I think my pH is definitely lower than before.

At 6AM: the Alk was at below. And Nitrate at 0.6 and phosphate at 0.0.

I added some coral booster and 20ml of liquid nitrate (10ml twice). I will go add 10ml of liquid phosphate now. And test tomorrow at 6am and adjust accordingly.
