I have a 32.5 gallon reef tank with 2 clownfish. I’ve started having a variety of issues in my tank and I wanted some help figuring out how to fix them. My tank chemistry is normal and I did a water change and replaced filtration and it didn’t do much.

My Zoa started growing this aptasia and I was wondering if dipping the coral would get it off.

My tank started growing these things that look like barnacles and I was wondering if they are bad.

My Tank has this red hair algae stuff in the back sump and I’ve tried just picking it off, but it just comes back. Is there a way I can get it to go away for good?

This stuff is on the surface or my tank and I can’t get it off. I have no clue what it is or how to get it off.

My sand bed has this red algae stuff. I’m just wondering if it’s bad and if so, how do I get rid of it?

My leather coral is really closed up and almost looks like it’s melting.

My Frogspawn corals top 2 big heads are really closed up and having bleached some. All the other smaller heads are fine. Do you think it’s a lighting or flow problem? Or something else? Thank you!!
 
How old is the tank? Current parameters? Alk, nitrate, phosphate needed at minimum, preferably not using API or strip tests.
