I cycled the tank for a month. Livestock has been in the tank for almost 2 months. One green clown goby, sexy shrimp, cleaner shrimp fighting conch, snails and an emerald crab in 10 gallon tank. I feed frozen food and pellets everyday. Manually dosing kalk everyday. 20% water change every week. Nitrates are zero when i test weekly. Should I be lessening my water change volume or frequency? I’ve only experienced a slight diatom bloom in the first month. The sps corals seem to be growing but not the Zoas. Should I feed more or dose nitrates? Is the tank over or under stocked?
