This is Correct! No SPS for at least 1 year.
Interesting that you say that. You put SPS in your nephew’s tank and it wasn’t even a month old yet. Then more SPS a month after that.
Do you think people that have a business selling corals wait a year to start SPS in a frag tank?
Also interesting that you say you were inspired by JA's Day 1 tank, which I mentioned in my earlier post.
Not trying to be confrontational, just a bit confused by your contradictions. :thinking-face:

I added the 1st coral to my tank on Tuesday, it was a birdsnest, and a stylophora. The stylo seems to be doing well, with no issues, the birdsnest I’m not so sure about. It has some algae growing on the base, and 1 tip. It also seems really white under my bluish light, but under just the cool whites from the AI prime it seems to have color.

I was thinking of fraging everything above the algae and attaching to a new plug, but was worried if it is already stressed fraging it would make things worse.

What would you do?

I'd leave it be.

New tank old tank?

It's the quality and age of rock in the system that has the go or no go.
