know things can be frustrating but there's Mg dosing for bryosis and tilefish for aptasia.

Sort of saying might want to figure out and deal with what's going on now or chances are next tank might not be any better

Unless you plan on going with a completely different size/shape. It will/can come back nicely

some suggestions
 
First figure out what's causing the problem, the first thing I would be doing is taking at least half of the sand base out, it looks like it's loaded with detris and very dirty, then run some Rowaphos in a reactor for your phosphate issue along with weekly 25% RO water changes, then work on the aptasia problem filefish and some peppermint shrimp. Some more flow to your tank with some water turbulence on your water surface would be a big help, I don't see any water surface breakage in your full tank picture. There could be other issues as well and maybe others will chime in to help out. Hope this helps, with some work and time it can be fixed. :wof:

Less than I month is my guess to have it on the mend....

Rowa $35
$40 snails & a few hermits...
Water changes x1 per week for a month..
Pepermint shrimp x1 per 35 gallons... Depending on how much aptasia you've got & their $8-9 ea.

Your looking at fixing it for <$100 bucks... And your next tank will again be the same in 3 months without the above things...

Remove a quarter of the sand -wash it and put it back... Get 2 sand stars and a bunch of nassarius snails and cerith snails to get your sand bed heAlthy... Remove sand each week wash it (tap water) and put it right back where it was.

Your tank has a ton of potential and can start looking good in a short time!!! It's easier to fix that one then start over.... I'm just sayin....

Thank u everyone for your help all off the above is the problem. I. Can't afford it at the moment. I need to move out soon here. I know the problems it's me neglecting them or can't afford the fix. And really want to start with no used livestock or equipment I'd like to go 100% bran new but I'm keeping the lights that's it and this is not anytime soon hopefully in a new house and when I get my broke ass figured out. Thanks again
