I have read several chalice receding threads but they don’t fit my scenario.
Few things I can think of, tank is almost a year old while rocks are close to 6 years old. Parameters are very stable for the last year.
8.5
425
1350-1420 mag has actually moved a bit
.11
20
Ph low. 7.8-8.0
Ok, a year ago I broke down and moved my current tank and setup a larger tank. While doing so I am having trouble with hammer corals and chalice corals. My hammers are slowly loosing flesh band, dropping heads and dying.
I’ve had a few chalice start to recede from outside and eventually die.
Recently found out my salinity was out of calibration, was 1.030 now 1.025 but over about 10 days. Again alk, po4 (and others) have been very stable
I would like to dip remaining corals as I tried to let them deal with it but they die… I have iodine and oil based dips. I’m afraid it may be a bacteria issue. I see no pests, flow is not harsh, hammers are in 100 par, same with chalice (old par meter)
Thoughts, I would like to not loose more corals, thanks all!
