Hi guys and girls, here is a little update of my tank. After the take over, I was very excited to start the hobby, and I know it's going to be difficult. But the former owner had something wrong in the sump, so the parameters were going all the way off. I finally found the problem and solved it with a daily water change.
I am happy everything held strong through this hard time. Unfortunately, two snails have not made it.
And the candy coral is one head bleaching; the rest is doing great, they open nicely, and some of them seem to grow.
Tomorrow I am going to do the last water change, and in a couple of days, I hope everything is going in the right way again.

In my tank, candy cane coral does really well at the bottom of my rock work in medium to low flow. Might be too high which is causing the bleaching. Just my opinion though.
I have my rl90 set down to 50. Bleu white is not more then 15 Red only comes with sunrises That's the other problem I'm taking on the wave makers are only go down to 30 % so when they go on it's like un hurricane 🌀 that's why 2 clownfish are most of the time in the corner of the tank. And I noticed when he was down on the rock because of the wave maker it crumbled together
Flow is definitely a factor. Took me almost 2 weeks to dial mine in. Ended up with one on the right side and one on the back left glass to get the flow right. Realized mine were also too strong so just swapped them both for MP10s and it’s been great! Have a mixed reef with soft corals, lps, and sps.
