I was buffering my salt water tank and accidentally used proper ph 7.0 for my fresh water tank and immediately corrected with marine buffer. my ph is now normal but my corals arnt doing great and a couple died already what can i do

 

[WIReefer]

I would do some large water changes over the next few days.

 

[Sleeping Giant]

Large water change, 25%+

 

[ruger11]

I did a 50% but nothing looks to have improved

Take the coral out into a different bucket/tank with just normal proper fresh saltwater.

Do a 100% water change, wait 6 hours, acclimate them again, and add them back. GL!

Sorry this happened to you. One takeaway from your experience is that most reefers don't chase PH and adjust pH chemicaly. Using pH buffers will throw off your water parameters, such as alkalinity.

Test your water parameters. If you've done a larger water change and it sounds like you have, let the tank stabilize now.
