What to do?? Starting off bad on week #3. All water parameters were ok last week so I purchased a clean up crew. Took four days to get here and many things were dead. Used what I could along with pink bar goby and small polyp colony. Think I lost goby? Lost a few more of clean up crew. One of the rock is forming what looks like white bubbles. Did 10% change. All water tests are still in check.

Monti cutting and small acan from 55 gallon. Added copepods to tank and refugium.

Pink bar goby jump to his death through a 1/4 inch screen! Think I will buy another and install full glass top.

Ricordea and polyp added. Week 4. Unable to trap camel shrimp. He seems to have no interest in corals.
