I don’t have a par meter but running two radions. All the euphyllia are mid level in the tank. The torches that look good do have that flesh band, these did as well. I did change the light settings reducing white photo period about three months ago trying to combat hair algae.
Hair still grows in blue light.
Common thing that is parroted with no facts.
Current settings are: blue ramp up for 30
Min to 75% AB+ for 5 hours followed by blues for another 3 hours. The old settings was 85% AB+ for 7 hours. I made the change based on WWC video about lighting and the algae issue. Could the reduction be something that caused the issue?

Might have to get a par meter I guess
It be just the par, could be flow is too low/high. Could be po4 is kinda high now at .3 but .2 is okay. But at that time could have been something else. Confusing for sure.

What lights do you have and the settings? Nevermind, I responded but reading the thread.

After you straighten out the par, remember that it may be a month or two before seeing flesh growth.

A long shot but worth checking, look at all your magnets and pumps for corrosion. My son started loosing Euphyllia the same way, couldn't figure it out until he got an ICP back, found a badly corroded pump in his salt mixing container.

I am not affiliated with this but I do have a bottle provided and was asked to give unbiased feedback…and this stuff is equal or better compared to kfc. And I did treat my whole tank with it eventually

It is gaining a strong following and popularity in asia and is coming to market in USA soon. Probably would be shipping now if not for the Cali fires

wow where do you buy it? i wonder what is in it.

EDIT: nevermind, i see its made of RNA, amino's, and fish liver extracts, what an interesting and odd combo.....i wonder what the RNA does..... and who thought to add fish extracts lol. how do ppl come up with this stuff.
