Icp test loosing acro collection

[Rick j]

Any input on icp test po4 bottomed out the. Dino showed up then rtn/stn burned tips algae on tips I e checked throughly for pest. Stray voltage every morning a few dead

Sounds to me like phosphorus deficincy. I'd try raising PO4 above .03 mg/l. Here's some links to refference to phosphorus in reefs systems:

Nutrient enrichment can increase the susceptibility of reef corals to bleaching - Nature Climate Change

Increased dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) concentrations in sea water have been linked to a reduction of the temperature threshold at which corals bleach, however, the mechanism underlying this change is not known. This phenomenon is now explained in terms of increased phosphatase activities...

Ultrastructural Biomarkers in Symbiotic Algae Reflect the Availability of Dissolved Inorganic Nutrients and Particulate Food to the Reef Coral Holobiont

Reef building corals associated with symbiotic algae (zooxanthellae) can access environmental nutrients from different sources, most significantly via the uptake of dissolved inorganic nutrients by the algal symbiont and heterotrophic feeding of the coral host. Climate change is expected to...

Sponge symbionts and the marine P cycle

Sponge symbionts and the marine P cycle

Marine sponges are ubiquitous colonizers of shallow, clear-water environments in the oceans (1, 2). Sponges have emerged as significant mediators of biogeochemical fluxes in coastal zones by virtue of respiring organic matter and facilitating both the consumption and release of nutrients (3, 4)...

Phosphorus sequestration in the form of polyphosphate by microbial symbionts in marine sponges

Coral reefs are highly productive ecosystems that raise a conundrum called “Darwin’s paradox”: How can high production flourish in low-nutrient conditions? We show here that in three abundant Caribbean sponges, the granules that have been commonly observed in sponge tissue for decades are...

I’ve had the same happen recently without the Dino’s. My phos and nitrate bottomed out slow stn around my sps bases. Then a little tip burn on my SSC. I noticed my alk went from 8.3 up to 9.5 idk how or when but I slowly lowered back to 8.3 over a week. Also I now dose phosphate up to .05 daily it’s been 0 every time I check still. And in the beginning I dosed nitrates to 7ish. The stn has stalled and I’m hoping for a bounce back
