Thanks! Well, I stopped using tap water and started to use RO/DI water, lowered my lighting period to like 5 hours a day, started to feed the maroon every other day, took out the LR and scrubbed it off with a tooth brush, added some chaeto and LR to my fuge, and got a HUGE Mexican Turbo Snail. The Mexican Turbo is like 2.5+ inches! I still have the Mexican Turbo snail, now I just feed it seaweed sheets. I also changed out my crushed coral for some live sand.

I don't have a clam or a lawnmower blenny. I'd rather get a big Mexican Turbo snail.
