Hi everyone,
I recently bought a 4" lobophyllia from the LFS. It looked plumpy and healthy at the store, but the tissue started to show signs of recession from the moment I brought it home. The parameters of the tank (Reefer 525XL) are normal (Cal:460 dKH: 9.6 pH:8.1-8.2 No3/PO4: near zero), and all the other coral are doing well. This is the first large lobo I bought (I have two 1" lobo frags that are quite happy in the same tank), so my experience is severely lacking. Could anyone provide any tips on how to rescue this poor thing? Many thanks!
