I got this chalice a week ago and it's starting to show skeleton. Everything else in my tank is doing great and perimeters are in check. Is there anything I can do to stop this and is it too late? Thanks in advance!

What exactly are your parameters? Salinty? Keep magnesium level high. Good luck

I moved it from 6" under the light to about a foot under. Has anybody had luck bringing back a chalice when skeleton is showing?
