My zoas were 100 percent open and vibrant with red color. This past weekend I have noticed that they look like crap. Not really open. Almost look sick. Can someone help me figure out how to recover from this

Test day: Saturday
Salinity 1.020 - I am slowly raising this
Phosphates .16
Nitrites 0
Pneumonia 0
Alkalinity 7.3
Nitrates.2
Calcium 375
Magnesium 1600 - using Red Sea testing kit and really having trouble reading it.
PH 8.2
Will be testing tomorrow.
Can anyone help me please

Your main issue is high phosphate and low salinity
Salinity- 1.025 and phosphate range- .05-..09
 
Very glad to hear your tank has zero pneumonia. I've had it before...it's not pretty. :winking-face-with-tongue:
