If you want the tank to actually cycle, you need to add a source of ammonia. I personally would not trust established rock to prevent a cycle once your clowns are in. I would not add the clowns in until to see evidence of the cycle, i.e high ammonia, then high nitrite, then finally high nitrate...

I personally will never own a controller because it introduces a single point of failure. I control my temp with a ranco, have a tunze ATO (which are bullet proof), and use the built in controller in my light. Just my two cents....

+100, you have made more big changes to that tank in a few months than most do in years. I would keep the tank up, and go back to basics (good light, good flow, and stable parameters). I would avoid anymore changes to anything for awhile.

Personally, I would use a shrimp so you can see the ammonia, nitrite, nitrate change clearly.

You need to know where your ammonia is at

Yes, it is caused by a bacterial infection.

That's north to me haha, and over an hour from cherry hill. Maybe if you still have it in a few weeks I will make the trip. Any scratches on the front glass?

I would also take it if you were not so far away. Seems like everything for sale is in North Jersey. GLWS.

Welcome!

If your par is 100 -260 your par is to low. Many sps require 400+

What is the intensity of the light set to?

They still do medicate with what I think it's quick cure. The last time I bought a fish there the water was at 1.018.

Where is it leaking from? I wish you were closer, I would hold some of the coral for you. Good luck.

Is it a new aqua lifter?

In that case your plan sounds fine. I would still run carbon because moving stuff around can stir up some nasties

I have always been fine painting around the tank. I would just run carbon, open windows, and make sure nothing gets in the tank.

This is a great skimmer at an awesome price. Glws

Maybe micro bubbles from your skimmer?

Carbon should clear it up

A left over waste product will settle but will not hurt anything. I clean the container out every few months.
