in need of advice and guidance

[SnoopNL]

The snails were in there for 2 or 3 months now.

The only thing I cut back on is the filter feeder food.

Maybe I need to rethink how I feed, maybe make sure some food gets to the bottom by feeding some at night ?

And of course the new pump malfunctioned and is now in for replacement.

Again: tank of doom ...
My imperator has left my polyps alone today !

Just did the first water change with rsm coral pro.

I also installed a filter sock, let's see if it helps.

Edit 1:
So far so good, the water seems more clear to me already and the fish and corals seem ok with it.

I think the filter sock was a smart thing to get as any extra filtration capacity is welcome.

Also tried feeding with only with flow pump active. It was a lot easier and calmer for the fish, so it seems this is the way to feed for me from now on.

The rsm seems to bring back color in my tank, and after my first warm summer I am now sure I need a cooler.

Almost half of the corals died ! There wasn't much in there but still sucks.

I've made the decision not to spend any more money on this tank. I'm moving soon and will start a new tank.
I will however take my fish with me. Can't live without the bright basterds.
