A light brown film has formed on the substrate (barely visible), my skimmer hasn't been skimming much lately, i had created a stand in the sump for the skimmer, i think the stand is to high, this has probably caused or at least contributed to the bacterial film on the substrate. Removed the skimmer stand and set water outlet all open, it seems to be skimming again, also topped up the Bio-pellet reactor with a different brand bio-pellets, maybe this helps with biodiversity. Got approximately 200ml bio-pellets online now.

The Pterapogon Kauderni is doing great, is taking both dry and frozen food eagerly.

The Ampherion Ocellaris is still pretty shy, hasn't eaten for the first 2 days, now he's taking frozen food, but still not much, he looks healthy though, will wait another week to observe for any disease till i let the other ocelarris join him.
