Try blowing the white spots off with a turkey baster or something. Could be detritus.

Not sure about zoa pox, but the build looks good. Good luck!

The new rockwork pulls the tank together great. I hope that you keep this running for years to come. There really aren't too many, handful, of subgallon sps tanks.
Good luck. |

I would suggest not doing a 90-100% water change weekly. Doesn't lend itself to the stability of the tank.
