How are your parameters, including SG, as well as par compared to the store?

 

[The Ugly Phase]

im not sure what the store kept but par around 75-50ppm salinity 1.025 alk 8.1dkh calcium 450 mag is 1350

nitrate around 17ppm phosphate abit high at 0.13ppm

It's a mix of Zooxanthellae and matter that the coral wasn't capable of properly digesting. It that coral in a spot where it can catch a lot of debris or fish food?

That phosphate is not very high unless it was living at the store at 0.03 or so. I wouldn’t do too much too fast but slowly edge the PO4 down. Eventually 90-100ish par.
