Hello everyone!
So... on 06/17 I went ahead and changed my rockscape to make it more conducive for coral placement. I took out some rocks out and the sand was flying all over the place.
After the move I placed all the euphyllias together and pretty much in the same level as before the rock change. (Same light/ pretty much same flow)
The next day all my euphyllias were upset. Closed up and deflated. Also a leather got upset. All the other corals were as normal.
I have 3 frogspawns and 3 hammers. Before this move they were doing amazing, even growing new heads and looking fat and puffy.
The water parameters did not changed at all (I tested daily for 2 weeks to make sure!) I waited 2 weeks and since they were not improving I decided to treat with Ciprofloxacin (500mg/100gallon) every other day for 10 days.
After dose #3 my leather opened up again. But the euphyllias are still upset and now they look like they have receding tissue on some heads.
After the cipro I did a series of 3 water changes of 20% each.
Today I did a Revive dip to see if something came off, but they were clean.
Any suggestions? Explanations? Experiences?
For reference:
AIO 45gallon
T 78
Sal 10.26
pH 8.0
KH 8.5
Ca 450
Mg 1440
NO ~10
PO 0.03-0.05
Pic 1. Now all sad
