Nitrates are Between 15 and 20 ppm , I keep him in moderate indirect flow and his on a rock in the sand at about 150 par using Radion xr 15 s G5’s blues . UV is at 65% 5 hours of the day and the rest of 9 hours blues 100% , white 35% and no green or reds . I keep my mixed softy dominant tank at a constant 76-77 degrees . Salinity at .025 weekly water changes 15 % . I feed manually one day a week and broad feed two other days . I use a good skimmer and run high quality carbon . My opinion of my success to keeping everyone happy is the lower temp ( as I used to keep temp at 78-79 ) and consistency , consistency , consistency. I also vacuum my 50% of my sand every water change .
