Hello everyone!
Sorry if I posted in the wrong spot!

So the tanks has been up and running going on week 7 (90G)
Added 2 clowns about week 4.
Week 5 added-
5 - Small blue leg hermit crab​
1 - Astrea snails​
1 - Nassarius Snails​
As of today, looks like 3 crab are dead...both snail seem fine.
And for the last few days, the rock has this white stuff on it and floating in the water.
Today after work, I was planning to take a soft nylon brush and clean the best I can.
Lights have been off only on for a few minutes a day since the Mrs wants to see how the fishes are doing and insist to keep them on so they could eat!
How can win an argument with the Mrs!
TMP ranges between 78.8 ~ 79.9 through out the day​
Salinity 34.3​
PH 8.38 and can go as high as 8.42​
Based on the APEX
Running Carbon and UV 24/7
No GFO yet and I haven't started the refug...planning on starting those next month when I add the next round of fishes that are in the QT.
 
The white stuff looks light alage that gets no light.
