Hi there!
First post, bear with me. I’m concerned about my bling bling cyphastrea. It was growing like crazy for a few weeks, then I added a 2nd CURRENT USA ORBIT IC PRO light to my setup, and I think that’s when it started turning slightly white on the edge. Here are the results from the tests I have access to:
pH: 8.2
Nitrite:0
Nitrate:10
Ammonia:0
Calcium:480 (I have calcified macro algae so I try to keep it a little under 500)
Sg: 1.026
I have also recently added a sump (was cycled with Dr Tim’s and fed + tested for 3 weeks after) that holds 29 gallons, whereas my tank is just a 40g breeder.
Anyways, just worried bout my pretty coral, any help is wonderful! I have moved it lower in the tank now, into a slightly more shaded spot, hoping it was just too much light. Pictures attached of the coral and the part that I think is dying. Thanks you guys!
