I thought I would start my tank post. So as a lot of you know I bought my setup from a local auction March 21? 2014. I'm new to the hobby although I did have fresh water fish for many years as a kid. Its a 90G tank and I think 30 G sump. I'm currently having an issue with very high nitrates and now getting a lot of moss. I've been using RO water for my water changes but am now going to start using only RODI water. I haven't got my own RODI yet but that's something I need to do asap but for now i'm going to buy the water from a frag tank member here in Watford.
I might sell the blue tang because I think shes a bit big for my tank if anyone is interested.
I have 5 fish now (lost 5 in the move)
Blue Tang
2 Clowns
PJ Cardinal
Algae Blenny
Lots of snails, crabs, urchin, star fish etc.

Ok thanks monizb,  PJ cardinal.. theres one of them, the other fish is like a goby, hardly see it cause its always hiding, I'll try to get a pic.
My skimmer seems to work as long as I keep it clean.. will look into replacing at some point.

Thanks Big Als.. My bomb is an urchin
Heres a couple more things I don't know the names of.. see pics. the 'creeper' fish my wife calls it is hard to get a pic of. Mostly hides and is Camera shy. The green bubble stuff I dont know if its corral or something I need toget rid of.

Algae blenny of salaries fasciatus I believe is the Latin name. The other is bubble algae. Don't "pop" them.  Not sure what size tank you have but if your tank is big enough a naso tang sometimes eats them.

So that bubble algae is something I should get rid of? If need be I could remove the rock and scrub it off. Will it spread if I left it in there? 
So my Algae blenny eats Algae I assume? He is a creepy looking fish for sure..lol
