Greeting,
My name is RJ, I have had the take set up as a fowlr for about 3 years. About this time last year, we upgraded our lights to JDJ 4 bulb t5, what LFS said I need to grow anything I wanted, along with the filtration system to a 30gal. sump with refuge and reef octopus skimmer to start to keep corals. The problem I’m having is that none of the corals seem to be growing. They all look good just haven’t grew. The corals I currently have are frogspawn, Hammer, Zoa, which have multiplied, Ricordea and Flowerpot. As of now, the only coral I have lost are some acons. Any advice on how to get these coral to grow would be greatly appreciated.
Tank information:
55gal
Lighting: 2 Red sea blue white 1500k, 2 Red sea Actinic 2200k all 4 replaced 2 months ago.
10gal. Water change and feeding every week.
Ph- 8.0
Nitrite- 0 ppm
Nitrate- 0 ppm
Ammonia- 0ppm
Calcium= 500ppm
Alkalinity- 11.0dkh
Mag- 1400ppm
Specific gravity- 1.026
Thanks in advance.
