  1. yes I would do a water change....when you say you have no skimmer do u mean non at all.... if so i would also vacume the sand bed to help get some of the food out of the system....need to get a skimmer going to help pull out the nasties in the water column....I would be willing to bet the lack of not having a skimmer is the bulk of the problem with the corals not looking too good....your skimmer pulls out so many of the nasty stuff your corals don't like and gets it out of the water column...

     

    now with that said how much are you feeding your fish? how much to corals....how often are your water changes

  2. do not use the egg crate...it is designed to difuse the light in any light fixture....I made my own screen tops with material from Lowes in the screen section in hardware, they have everything you need but the screen....I used a 1/4"x1/4" square mesh I got from another reefer who ordered it in bulk and sold off what you needed to make your screens tops....same thing as brs, but look around I am sure you can find it cheaper than what they sell it for, think I paid like 3.00 for screen and .44 for shipping.....I will try and find his email and see if he still has some for sale

  3. ^^^^^^^+1^^^^^^^^ I also use selcon for my fish....I alternate between the two one day garlic next selcon, neither of these willalter water parms. These two supplements will make your fish very healthy and help them fight off disease and make there color look alot better....

  4. I let mine dry completly then I take a scrub brush to them with a water hose to clean them real good....a little messy but works great for me....there really in no easy way to clean this type of rock....well unless you have someone else do it for ya....rofl
