Alright everyone, so I have numbers for you.
Salinity was 1.024
Temp 78.7
Ph 7.94
Nitrate 4-5 ppm
All 6.72
Ca 440
Mag 1360
The magnesium seems to be the most off. Would this be affecting the coral and what is the best way for me to raise mag? I have some B-ionic 2 part I’ve never used before. Could start dosing that
I would just use a little baking soda (sodium bicarbonate). Calculators online to input water volume current alkalinity and desired alk. BRS has one on their websiteThis is getting into a discussion outside the LPS but how do I raise alkalinity alone? I read that for b-ionic you want to do both equally. Should I switch to a different dosing brand?
Raising it a little to quickly monitor all your corals I would just hold it steady at 9 and let the corals adapt that’s a good number to be at.

Thanks!Some parameters are off.
Aim for close to these numbers but do not chase numbers to achieve certain readings
Temp 77-79
salinity 1.025
ph 8.1-8.3
CA 450
Mag 1300
Alk 8-9
Moderate light and water flow and feed suspended foods. Mine was size of a softball and now Soccer ball
I feed mine small mysis and brine shrimp about once a week and they are pretty consistent about eating and opening up after (fed yesterday so it’s still a little closed) I’m not sure why the tips fatten up, but after a day or so it usually stretches back out. Weird creatures! LolThanks!
What food do you recommend? I feed goniopower twice a week since I also have a goniopora but I don’t get much of a feed response from anything when I do
