here it is today. I have added another damsel and a clown fish I got as a gift. I wasn't going to get one yet but it was a gift so, what a ya do? I call him Nemoy ( Star trek fan) The damsels do pretty good together. Considering I heard they would fight. Had an algae out break last week but seems to be getting better with the added circulation and wc's. Now I'm going to let it mature for a while although i already want something to help sift the sand! Always something, right? Yea, I'm hooked

Looks like you're off to a good start! Real nice red zoas!! Good luck with algae issue. Weekly water changes were key to getting rid of the hair algae and red slime that popped up in my Biocube. Cutting my lights back, increasing flow, and running chemi-pure elite, purigen, and carbon with some filter floss has been a great help as well. You could look into getting some nassarius, olive snails, or small conchs to help stir up the sand as well. I'd recommend nassarius because they are the cheapest and seem to do the job well enough. ;)

I will get ya' some pics tonight. we gotta fix that spelling problem, you know like " no child left behind!" the algae is better with the added circulation but still holdin on in spots that dont get direct water flow but looks better. I have a question, How much of this frozen food should I give. Its called frozen Coral Food by H2O Life. It comes in individual squares appr. 1/2"x 1/2". I have the 3 fish and cuc who love it also. Before the algae I was giving 1/2 of one sq. every other day.

1/2 cube every other day sounds fine. Or break it down into 1/4 cube once a day. I don't think that's overfeeding.

I believe that's an all-in-one essential elements/calcium supplement? If so, be sure you are testing for whatever is in it. You can overdose on that stuff, and if you're not testing, you have no idea of knowing how much to add.
