I'm fairly new to salt water but things aren't going well. I have a 55 gallon tank with ~40 lbs of live rock. I have 5 fish, A toby puffer fish, a clown pair, a pajama cardinal, and a watchman golby, I also have a clam which I believe is a leafy jewel box (got him accidentally but its doing well). The problem is some, not all of my coral is dying. I did a water change 2 weeks ago, my parameters, are
Salinity: 1.026
KH:10.7
Mg:1900ppm
Calcuim:475ppm
Amonia:0-.1 ppm
Ph:8.3
Nitrate and Nitrite 0 ppm
My light is a coral light and at 64% white and 100% blue as I seen suggested on reef2reef
My corals doing bad are Zoanthas, maze coral, and Trumpet coral in low flow and medium depth, the ones that died are a Hammer coral and a Bubble tip anaome
My corals that are extremely thriving are A button coral, green star grass coral, a green carpeting coral that I dont know what it is, and a circular sps coral I dont know the name of
My fish are doing great. My clam, and clean up crew are also going well
Everything started going wrong when I did a bad thing with an unfortunate event. In one night I changed my filter ( and removed it but transfer all media) from a over the top filter to a canister filter and changed my light level from 80% white 80% blue to 64% white and 100% blue.
HELP What should I do to save my coral and my tank
