    The 55 is going bye bye.

    To those who stopped by thanks for reducing the tank, I hope the corals do well for you. Thanks Brian for your comment that I had the most sps in a 55 that he had ever seen. That means a lot to me!

    why does my macro algae always die

    Cheato is pretty tough and hard to kill. My experience with the reds have found a dark cycle to help.

    why does my macro algae always die

    Lights should be no more than 12 on. Even algae need to sleep. I reverse the lighting in my refugium to my DT.

    why does my macro algae always die

    Lighting, low nutrients, type of algae you grow. Can you be more detailed on the environment you house the alge?

    Salt

    I was using reef crystals and also noticed the big spike in the alk. Have since switched to Tropic Marin. No issues, but does not take as much mix to get to 1.026.

    STN?

    Check your parameters first. Then plan to get them where they should be over a given period. Keep it stable and all should be well. I would not touch it, let it do it's thing. Even if it's a little bit left alive, it's a birds nest and will grow quite quick!

    Do I have flatworms?

    Flatworm exit can cause them to release toxins as they die. Depending on the amount in the tank....it may be too much and affect the corals. Never had a wrasse but it sounds a lot better.
