I have a 30 gallon setup. New tank, abt 5 months old. All of the sudden about three days ago I notice my GSP is only half open. Also my toadstool has been retracted. I’ve seen the toadstool retract before for like a day, but never for this long. I dose Red Sea AB+ and I feed with reef roids occasionally. Here are the pictures
Note that this is with white light so you can see them. Here are my water parameters using Red Sea test kit
Ammonia and nitrite:0
Nitrate:40ppm I know that’s high but it’s been that way the whole time
Alk:7.5
Ph:8.2
Mag: 1320
Calc: 400
Phos: .25 (def a little high, is that what it is?)
I will do a water change, but is there anything else I should do?
