In need of some help, this seems like the right place for Bowerbanks..... So, I got this guy from ChaosAquaculture.com in the beginning of May. It is not doing terrible, but not doing well either. It seems to be pulling away from it's skeleton. I've tried a few positions in the tank. I also got a chalice that is not doing well at all. But, I also got some zoo's and a Montipora that are doing great. Any advice would be great.

Parameters:
90 Gal corner tank, 125gal total water volume
SG: 1.025
PAR(at coral): 110
ALK: 8.1-8.4
Calc: 420-440
Mg:1400
NO3: 5-10
PO4: .07-.09
I've been dosing Reef Roids almost every day and bright well amino every other day......

Have you tried target feeding some mysis or some LPS pellets or something similar at night? Mine are hungry buggers and get fed several times a week.
