Brush the inside with a toothbrush, toothbrush some of the LR, and clean the outside glass with a microfiber cloth.

The direct flow of water scares them sometimes.

very nice tank. I m impressed. Keep up the good work. it sadens me when I see fish suffering in aquariums that are not kept well. glad to see some fish are happy

You wouldn’t necessarily need a protein skimmer. As long as you change the water weekly, it shouldn’t be too hard to maintain.

take the sponges and rings out! they are only collection detritus! the back of the tank is covered with black latex, you can cut out a a rectangular section in the center compartment, attach a fuge light and grow chaeto in there, much better than those rings

You stir the sand with the tooth brush? And for the glass, how do you clean it? I suppose very carefully as to not bump the coral or something right?

More flow, in my opinion. Soft corals do not like high flow, but more in the medium range. you could put a hydor koralia nano pump in there, and it would look great. xenia also likes higher flow to move plankton around in the water, helps its growth. but i like the tank, nice
