Hey guys, so i bought my first acropora about 5 or 6 days ago from a local reefer closing down his tank. It called dallas acro here in australia, similar to the green slimer.
Its my first sps, i dipped in melafix before adding to the tank,
And it has been getting abit of brown algae or zooxanthellae? Or something on it
Not sure if its normal or if ive done something incorrect, or if its AEFW, would love some advice and hopefully a solution
Params are, as of 2 days ago
Temp - 78 steady
Ph - 8.0 steady
Nitrate - 5 steady
Phosphate- 0.1 fluctuates abit between 0.05- 0.1
Alk - 7.8 fluctuates abit between 7.5- 8.0
Calcium - 430 steady but trying to raise slowly to 450
Mag - 1350 steady
