Burnt Tips

[JAMSOURY]

My Sps tips are burnt. I’m not sure what it is. I’m reading it could be a nutrient issue but my nutrients seem fine. I’m running a calcium reactor with trident and it is showing it fluctauates between 8.10 and 8.2 everyday but a very consistent reading at 8.2 at 12:00pm everyday. It only happened to a couple of my sps but everything else is doing fine.

Here are my parameters.

Alk 8.2
Calcium 520
Magnesium 1420
Nitrate 15
Phosphate 0.08

Brown tips are different than burnt tips. (Tips without flesh).

What's your lighting/par?

Oh ok, mine are burnt but still have fresh. Hitting 350 par on that spot with the recommended being 350-375 for that one sps.

Did you check your trident measurements against manual test kits?

Yes, alk is pretty much right on. Calcium about 400 and Mg 1375. So not too far off but all have been consistent.
