I am hoping you can help. I noticed this morning my open brain coral started to show skeleton. It has been thriving for the past year and just last month asexually reproduced a small colony. All other corals including my SPS seem to be doing very goodl. I did recently find out I have zoa pox on a couple zoa colonies as well.
Here is what I changed over the past 2 months.
I added a skimmer and I have been skimming wet. This was due to adding SPS about 2 months ago.
I have elevated MAG levels to fight a byprosis problem I have been having. I am not sure what my mag level is but I am dosing 16 ML into a 16G nano tank once a day that has probably 18lbs of LR.
Here is what I am doing...
I adjusted my skimmer to skim less wet
This morning instead of putting 16ML of mag in I only did 14ML and plan to cut back 2ML every day until I am no longer dosing it.
Could either of those two things cause my LPS open brain to do this? I have a chalice that is about 4 inches from it down stream could that be effecting it?
Any help would be great. This coral is my favorite one... Really hurts to see it like this.
