So I managed to almost kill a beautiful Elkhorn piece I purchased at the end of June. Pictures are when I got it (nice and green), two weeks later (almost no color), and today. Thanks for the help of others on this forum, I realized my dKH was too high (10.6) and I have slowly lowered it over the past couple weeks (7.6). Color is returning, but the tips (as well as some other spots) have algae on them. Should I just let it alone since it appears to be improving each day or do the tips need to be cut off?
Here are my current parameters:
dKH - 7.6
pH - 8.2
NO3- 1
PO4 - 0.02
Temp - 77.9
Salinity - 1.025
Calcium - 439
Magnesium - 1280
