They seem plump but limp/droopy. Here is the history of my tank. Fairly new tank. Completely cycled end of March.
Had a pair of clowns for about 6 weeks and then added some corals. Some corals lost color and I tested it. Alk was coming in at 5.9 (salt mixed to that. Brand : aquavitro salinity). I dosed some soda ash as I had some from a fb marketplace deal I got before cycling. I also changed salts and did some WC during these readings.
