Not sure what I have here

So these corals started to open up, along with what I think is gsp. My cuc seems to be doing very well, every day I see more and more of my rocks and little corals popping up around the tank.

I don't know if they are open enough to get a real I. D. But I'm wondering if I should try to feed them something to help them recover from being choked out by all the algae and poor water conditions?

Or do I just keep cleaning and let them acclimate to the new environment ?

Where'd your live rock come from?

I bought a 90g system that has been up a few years, owner didn't have time for upkeep anymore. He said he bought them with the corals on them but didn't know what they were. I thought they were all about dead cuz the gsp just looked like skin with no grassy stuff. And the zoas? Were all curled up.

I've got too many of these, and they seem like they are splitting into even more lol.

I'm guessing a little of both lol. My clowns love em, that's for sure. I just hope they take to the anemones the same.

I think mostly I just want to know if I'm being too impatient. Should I just let everything get acclimated to the new environment before I consider supplements or try to give em a little boost up now?

I think youre just impatient

The pictures look really good, you dont want to add too much too fast.

For the corals you have all you need is routine water changes. They are all hardy corals that will thrive as long a chemistry is close to NSW, which water changes will provide without getting complicated.
