Hello, I've had my waterbox 45.2 set up for about 1 year, with previously cycled rock that was 2 years old (for what that matters). I am just at a loss, corals don't last in my tank at all, and from what I've gathered I should have SOME level of success. My parameters are as follows:
Ammonia 0ppm
Nitrite 0ppm
Nitrate 10ppm
Phosphate 0ppm-.1ppm
CA 400
Mg1480
Alk 8.4 dkh
pH 8.6
salinity 1.026
the fish are doing great, clown fish are even laying eggs every couple weeks.
I have an ai prime running the brs ab+ schedule and a mp 10 running at about 20%
I'm only trying to keep LPS and zoas.
The corals will do great for about a week then the polyps stop extending and they slowly waste away. I've tried spot feeding them and it doesn't seem to help.
ANY input is much appreciated, I'm really at a loss. I'm really considering leaving the hobby and I truly don't want to do that. Thank you in advance to anyone that helps
