Quick Update:
Got through the diatom phase with some hair algae starting to crop up. Swapped the astrea snails to the sump and added 8 trochus to the display. Still looks real ugly but most of the diatoms are no longer growing.
Harvesting 75% of refugium macro weekly.
Added a doser for 6ml of alk overnight (spaced 1 ml 1 hr apart).
PH swings are much smaller now.
Purple firefish decided to die on us from unknown causes.
Tang fooled us and looked to be getting sick, shed it's mucus layer and hasn't missed a step since.
Zoas added new polyps. Digi has new growth tips on it. Cap and encrusting corals are in recovery but doing ok.
