Hello. My name is Jacek and is it my first post here.
My first reef tank 40liters has 5month. On the beginnig, it was plan to has simple tank with soft corals, but finally i love euphyllia soo much, that it will be euphyllia garden
Unfortunatly, I have issue with some corals and i am not able to manage it. Everyday, arround 4 pm , part of euphillia (normally few of them, for rest i dont observe) suck in skelletton in relly short time. Often, in exactly the same moment. It is happends from beginning of tank. All of them (Not including one euphyllia) , whole day is in excellent condition. After suck in, it takes 1-2 hours to Come back.
I am already started dosing All for reef, more or less 3ml per day. It is added in RO water, then leveling system is adding more or less, 3times 1ml in day.
From media, i use only carbon in panel.
Second light was added, configuration changed few times.
My ph is arround 7.8 - 8, but i dont measure everyday.
Yesterday, i added co2 scrubber to be sure that dont drop too low and too fast.
I noticed, that KH drop during day from 8.2 to 7.8, other day 8.6 to 7.8(Hannah) . Tomorrow, i will buy dosing pump (h2ocean p1) to adding smaller and regular dose of AFR.
No3 is normally from 0.5 - 3 during week(salifert).
Po4 normally 0 to 0.04(hannah)
All of the euphyllia, i was dip in SEACHEM and CORAL PROTECT few times
2weeks ago i changed salt from AF reef salt to RS blue. I changed 3 Times, 20%water every two days.
Before, i was changing regulary 20% per week, and from now i will do do the same
A lot of changes, good, and not good. But euphyllia do more or less the same.
Like i wrote, some action are planed and we will see effects.
But maybe someone are able to propose something else, or had simillar situation.
Maybe other dip?
ps. Sorry for my English, is not my home language.
