I have a 200 gallon tank I’m running 2 Red Sea 45 at opposite sides on Random at 50 percent I have 2 nero7 on the back glass running random at 50 percent. Now I have had this hammer coral for 3 years I had to frag it into 3 sections 2 of them have about 10 heads each the third that has 7 heads is dying on a couple heads and any new hammers I add to the tank dies with in a week I can’t find out why new hammers die when I have 2 that are doing really good

Sorry to say that in my experience, Hammer coral are just like that.

Some do well, some just die. Some of them are really fussy.
