Possible low DO(Dissolved Oxygen)?
What's your pH?
This is all fairly new growth, I had a misfortune with a faulty heater in January.
Wiped out 90% of my coral with a temp of 91 deg., I'm surprised my fish made it..
So I figured it would be a good time to try a more economical way of supplementing, since I'd almost be starting from scratch...
I switched back to Kalk after 10 years of using C-Balane and EcoSystem Reef Solution; Simply for economics..
I mix 3 table spoons of Kalk in one gallon of RODI and it every other day as evap.(pour off the clear solution into the sump near my skimmer intake)
On opposing days to Kalk mix, I use Strontium Chloride(2 Table spoons in one gallon), and Bright-well MagnesIon-P(2 table spoons in one gallon)
Weekly I add NF metals, Potassium, and 5ml of lugol's (This was part of my supplementing before switching back to Kalk)
120 Gallon Mixed Reef
NO3 - <10 PPM
PO4 - <.1 (Note: before using Kalk PO4 was .1-.25)
CA - 420 PPM
MG - 1470 PPM
SR - 16 PPM
DKH - 10º
SG - 1.026
pH - 8.6
