7 dead so far and counting
Sal. 1.025
Temp 78
Ammonia 0
PH 8
Nitrites 20
Nitrates 5

Haven’t tested alk but will tomorrow when I get more tests.


Added a small price of pukani 4 days ago everyone my coral started crashing and can’t get it to turn around
Completed a water change as soon as I noticed it still going down hill. Any help or direction would be appreciated.

How long has the tank been running? You're showing nitrites, on a fully cycled tank you should be showing no nitrites.
