Help! I can't keep LPS alive (or "easy" SPS either)

If youre running ROX, I believe it contains ferrous oxide which is powerful and not needed in a newer tank. Additionally, you are likely going through chemical swings with a newer tank and need to pull back and focus on chemistry and water quality than coral right now.

hey it has been a wail. I was reading through the issues you have. Sorry you are dealing with the issue still. I have a question about how the lps die. What do they look like when they die. Do they bleach or have recession. This could help solve the issue you are having. If you could post pictures and the peramiters of the tank so we can get a understanding of the time line this is happening and have a visual might be rely helpful.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

It depends on how badly I want the fish

Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

I haven’t really considered this before

Something else (see my comments in the thread)
