Hello.

I had a bubble tip that did well for many months. It went on the move and eventually shrunk down. The last two weeks, I have discovered that I have two. Both look really bad, but they continue to stay this size. What can be done?

SOme more information would be helpful. Water parameters, lighting, tank mates fish and corals, feeding regimen, any unusual events last few months.

Assure not too much flow or too little light.
Has nitrate-salinity-ph-Phos become elevated?

Not that I am aware of. All other corals are happy. I typically have a hard time keeping phos up. Nitrates have been on the higher side (50), but even my sps are happy. If I do a bunch of water changes to drop it down, will they recover?
