    Your tank is small. Try a computer backup. I know the whole Carolina thing and thankfully never lost power during that ice storm. BUT when will you loose power??? Usually during the winter... SOOOOO get a battery backup for a heater and a battery powered air pump to keep the water...

    angel swimming question??

    Emperors do that. They are pretty lazy swimmers. They will swim sidways though. Alot of salwater fish will swim any which way if you watch them long enough. Anyways. I took care of a pair of adults where i worked for 2 months. They swam like that all the time.

    Is this diagram of my setup correct?

    nitrite level?

    Yes its normal. You are more than likely cycleing your tank. While i never had issues with harmful levels during my two setups it is something that always has to be taken into consideration. Ideally you shouldn't add anything "valuable" for at least 4 weeks. Let your cycle finish before you...

    Finally a before pic of the tank I think from January. Notice the half dead brain and minus some rock and alot of corals.... I fed the brain practically nightly for several weeks untill he got some "skin" back and now his color has finally taken off after 3 months or so.
