Gwen - if you find the answer to the phosphates/nitrates, lemme know, too.
But other than that, your tank looks great! I love the actinic look

Cath- I have noticed an increase in skimmate since changing the flow around. Seems like my skimmer was barely working before. Maybe the way I had the flow moving, the detritus wasn't getting suspended in the water column. The rocks look less fuzzier today- with 31 hermits and no food, they should! I've been blowing the rocks no less than twice a day. I'm trying. Also I have less rock too- maybe there was too much rock and the flow couldn't get around all the rockwork. I'll know more in a few more days.
Thanks Cath |

Great shots Gwen!
Yep, get all that detritus up in suspension and you'll see some big skimmer efficiency and algae improvements.
