Hello everyone!
I have had a brain coral for about 2 years. It has had its ups and downs but over the summer it was BEAUTIFUL!!! So full everyday! Just perfect! It has never showed signs of “night time feeding” no tentacles nothing. I feed it reef roofs like I do all my others. BUT over the past few months it has went down hill bad! My perimeters are:
Alk: 7.9
PH: 8.3
Nitrate: .05
Magnesium: 1350
Calcium: 470
Salt: 1.025
Here it is... any suggestions? It is on the bottom of tank, good flow.

Looks like it’s too far gone to save any of it but maybe the lps forum guys can help you.
 
She looks toast. But I hope someone here can help
