Advice:
im sure everyone says the same thing here, so i will try to add things here that most dont.
if you get a bad case of flatworms the only thing that works is to buy 1 velvet nudibranch per 10 gallons. do not use any chemicals for the flatworms because the toxins it releases can kill your coral.
the best way to treat ich i have found was using NO SICK FISH ICH. 1 drop per 35 gallons, but make sure you turn off the skimmer, and most important the uv steralizer, and remove any carbon in the filter. if you have a mud system you must use kick ich. good luck and anyone can email me asking me anything

If at first you dont succeed, dust yourself off and try again.
Corals/Plants:
Orange and Blue Zoes, Yellow Polyps, Green Star Polyps, Gorgonians, Kenya Tree Coral, Purple and Green Mushrooms, Orange and Green Monti Caps, Red Candy Cane, Orange Button Polyps, Blue/Red Zoes, Green Brain, Red Cynarina, Xenias, Giant Cup Mushroom, Red Mushrooms, Finger Leather,
Tank Size:
72 gallons
Advice:
Regular waterchanges i do mine once a week (10gallons), read before you buy, plan ahead on what you want to keep in the tank and where the tank will go. Test your water regularly also to make sure that your levels in your tank are stable. The best test kits to buy are Salifert in my opinion. Like my quote says dont let small things get you down just keep at it and you will be happy with the end results.
