I have a Blue Sympodium, it opened up the same day I purchased, was doing excellent for about three weeks. I did my monthly 5 gal H2O change on my 90 gal. It has not came out fully since. It has been about 8 weeks. I have put in high flow, low flow. Low light, high light and shimmer. I've done three 10 gal water changes in the past 3 weeks. I thought my test kits were old so I bought new Red Sea test kits. In the course of six weeks H2O was 1.025 salinity, pH - 8.4, dKH 8-10, Ca - 380 -420 ppm, Mg - 1480-1700, NO3 - less than 0.25 ppm, PO4 - less than 0.01 ppm. The nitrate and phosphate test kits are hard to read when values are low. I would say that they are 0 but I don't think that is possible. Current values are Salinity - 1.025, pH - 8.4, NO3 - less than 0.25 ppm, PO4 - less than 0.01 ppm, Ca - 420 ppm, Mg - 1560 ppm, dKH 9.2, temp. 77.6. My Kessil A360WE are max of 70 % on intensity for 3 Hours, color is approx. 13 ,000 K. 12 hr day starts at 19K - 13K - 19K, intensity 5% - 70% - 5%. Everything else is thriving. HELP! I haven't bought any new corals since this has been going on.
