So I’ve been having some problems for a couple weeks with algae and my sps.
my tank was doing great before this. Great polyp extension on all corals. Color was good and my sps was growing fast then I started seeing some hair algae (I think it’s bryopsis) and some stringy algae on the back glass. my corals closed up and stopped growing.
I started dosing vibrant per the instructions with little to no improvement.
I then tried seachem pristine and my results were better but the algae eventually outcompeted it.
I just recently dosed fluconazole and things took a turn for the worst. Most of my sps is having tissue loss and losing color. All my corals are closed and not doing good. I don’t know what’s going on or what’s wrong.
here are my parameters
Calcium 500ppm
Alkalinity 11.2 DKH
Magnesium 1670ppm
Phosphate 0.04ppm
Nitrate 0.0ppm
Salinity 1.025
Water temp 77.5-78.8
