do you have a clean up crew?
you many want to get a additional powerhead, which will help with the algea(cyano).
do you feed your sun polyps?

Don't mean to be blunt, and i've never kept sunpolyps....but they will die if not spot fed. I'd spot feed with frozen foods every other day. Like stated i've never kept them but i have looked into getting some.
I hear a good trick to feeding them is using a two liter bottle with the bottom cut off. put it over them and inject(turkey baster) the top with food. But, do what works for you.
Remember, if you don't feed them they will die. I watch them come into lfs and die in a month or less.
Your tank looks good, i'd suggest maybe some zoos. And if you deside to get some, look for single polpys and frag them and watch them grow, its cheaper than buying a big colony.

What kind of lights do you have? Suncoral will be damaged by direct contact from high levels of light. They also do need to be spotfed everyother day. The extention of polyps is not nessecarily growth. It is hunger. You won't see growth for months. And when you do they come in the form of little baby polyps that are stuck between the rest. They are awesome corals but do take loads of work. I love mine!

What kind of zoos are those by the way, and do you want to get rid of them?

But there are little babies between the adults...?
If you want them, I could trade for something cheap I guess...
But I prefer shipping
