    Dry salt on glass

    Get a good sw book. Sw for dummies is good. There are a couple other good ones. Testing your waters salinity or sg daily is a good start. It will give you an idea of how fast it drops or rises. If it rises you add fw to bring it back down to where you need it. If it drops generally a normal...

    Green cloudy water.....

    It does look like alage to me. Increased lighting will cause that. Now is it just on the glass or is the water it self murky?

    Dry salt on glass

    Agree w the above. You only need to maintain your salinity now. No need for water changes until the tank is being stocked. You maintain your salinity by adding fw when needed. Your salinity should rise as your water evaporates. Water does, salt doesn't

    No your good. Just saying if u did use a copper base some fish don't react well w it. Ich is treated w copper often. So the med you did use for brook could have a neg effect on the wrasse. Brook kills fast so if u did still have it, you would know

    Possible velvet and re-do
