Bleaching Coral with AI Hydra 52's?

[Tahoe61]

All good interventions, it will take some time to see the results.

Personally I like Sponge Power and Reef Roids for my sps. I get all my supplements from either BRS or MarineDepot.

My tank is not a stunning large sps system but it does run Hydra 52.

This is a good thread, I myself am experiencing this bleaching phenomenon. Mostly it's on my zoas, blastomussa, acans, wellso brains. I have always thought my nitrates and phospates are too low. My AI Hydra 52 light intensity is at 25% white, 60% blue which I know is very low. I'll start feeding my tank more and see if it improves.

Because if corals don't have a small amount of nitrate and phosphate they bleach and die.

What kind of feeding regimen/schedule should we be doing? Feed corals everyday? 2x/week? I myself am having this problem.
