Now that my tank "seems" to be free of encrusting sponge my corals look hugely better. The toxins from the sponge was severely limiting the growth of those. Now they all have full extension even though they are all surrounded by hair algae.

I may get a couple more today. I doubt they would live in a newich, clean tank.
Oh wait!! You mean that waspfish? The red one...
