What size total water volume do you have? How much/often do you feed? Any other filter media being used?
I'm not able to take out my skimmer cup from my sump without spilling it everywhere due to very tight space. 75gDT with about 10-15g of water in my sump. Feed flake 2x a day and my corals feed reefroid mix with phyto n tank water 2x a week. No other filter media except for a bag of carbon in sump.

I grew sps just fine with cheap LEDs.
U know what. My largest sps the hulk green acro and my monti caps stay stationary pretty much always and are the fastest grower by FAR.
