Thanks, all. Gonna test phosphates tonight and grab some Trochus snails tomorrow. Lights are dialed back to 60% intensity. Feedings are every day with LRS Reef Frenzy, so I'll cut to every other day. Appreciate the help!
Solid plan. Keep us posted. Oh, and if you're using frozen, rinse it in a net first. Reef Frenzy's got extra juices that spike nutrients.

One last thing—if your rocks are leaching, consider a short blackout. 3 days max, with a blanket over the tank. Corals will bounce back, but algae hates it. Just keep an eye on oxygen levels.
