A look at my 40b

[badstorm48]

The tank has been up and running great for the past few months. I've had some hiccups on the way but have come back from them. I've been in the hobby for about 5 months now and have loved every second of it. I spend countless hours on my phone or computer just looking fish and corals and how to care for them. Just everything about this hobby intrigues me and makes me look deeper into everything to learn more. I'm still a beginner and have just scratched the surface. Since starting the tank I've had a hiccup (knock on wood nothing else happens). So, I had my tank stocked about a month and a half ago and it was wiped out. The water was fine and my lfs and I were dumbfounded as to why all fish died and so fast. I lost 2 in one day. Came home from work and found them there no ich or anything. Next day another 2 were gone. Skip a day another one went. They just went so fast it was crazy. A day after the last one went we decided to check the electrical current in the tank. It was crazy the meter read almost a 9. There was nothing wrong with the wires but the electrical field from everything created it. Got a little toy and it took all the electrical current going through the tank out so it reads a zero now. If I turn everything off the meter reads a .40. The .40 is from wifi actually. Disconnected that and it was at .01. So, anyway finally got my tank stocked and I like it a lot better. I know many people will complain about the tangs but I assure you they are happy. They eat all the time swim and stay out in the open grazing through out the tank. No tang aggression and everyone is happy. The only fish that lived was bubbles the yellow tang. That fish has went through a lot and is healthier and happier than ever. So, here's a little on my tank.

Yellow eye kole tang
Yellow tang
Watchmen goby
Starry blenny
Twelve line wrasse
Carpenter wrasse

Hammer coral
A couple digitata

Acropora
A few types of polypy corals

Some type of mushroom

Regular cuc of snails and hermits

excuse the cyano since that picture all of it is for the most part gone except little corners here and there

Equipment:
Nac 3.5 skimmer rated for up to 80 gallons great for my sump cause of small foot print
Eshopps nano sump
Rio 1100 return pump
Jebao rw 8 wave maker

Looks great!
Which species of gsp do you have? Yours has the long tentacles that I was looking for. My GPS are short and don't give the grassy look I was hoping for

Not sure at all. Just know it's a hammer. Picked it up at my lfs for 50 bucks. Right now I'm trying to get ahold of the names of the corals I have. Think I'm going to have a notebook of all the names of the corals I have for future reference.
