Default Static's 15 Gallon

I started this tank about 2 years ago. For a big part of last year I was working full time and going to school for 5 hours a night on top of that. Unfortunately I neglected my tank for that time. I'm now fighting with algae and might be winning. I've managed to clean up the water enough so I don't have any diatomes on the back wall anymore, and only need to clean my front glass every 3 days or so.

Pics are under xm 15000k 250w

My clown, he doesn't like the camera for some reason


Why does everyone hate damsels so much?


Can you spot the goby?


Everything was growing while I wasn't watching




A little peice of acan that I got, was 1 polyp and a couple babies when I got it 1 year ago


A candy cane, it had 6 heads, about 2 years ago


I think I might have a bit too much light for my hammer coral, he's not showing much colour. This guy had some invasive algae covering his skeleton and starting to grow over his flesh, so I took him out of the tank and performed about 1.5 hours of surgery carefully scraping all the algae off his skeleton while dipping him back in a bowl of tank water every couple minutes.


This guy has kind of outgrown my tank, he just takes up so much room, might be up for a trade or something if anyone is interested. He's about 8" tall when all puffed up


I'm currently working on a stand for my 75 gallon. It's going to be more of a full system with a sump and all the plumbing hidden. I hate always seeing my skimmer pump and powerhead taking up 1/4 of the tank.
