This is the first night have have really noticed my corals white tissue not looking great. On my frogspawn there does not look like there is a lot of tissue and on my hammers the same thing. Is this a problem?
They are also starting to close up.

What do you mean by touched the today? This corals has been in my tank for about a month and has been opening great. I don’t honk I have any cyano or Dino’s in my tank. My parameters are looking good. Here is a pick of what it usually looks like.

Salinity 1.025
Mag 1350
Alk 8.5
Cal 470 nitrate 3.5
Phosphate 0.00
pH 8.0

The standout there is phosphate. That needs to get off zero or corals will suffer for sure. Is it a steady zero or are you bouncing off bottom?

They are not dead so yes. The flesh band will regenerate and growth will resume if you correct the problem/s.
Ok what would you dose for phosphorous or do you think reef roids will solve that problem?
