I wanted to try my hand at sps, I have a 1 yr old tank with few fishes and good params. Weekly water change, skimmer, aquaclear for carbon and small uv light, hob refugium w chaeto.
I just can't get sps to do well. Lps and softies I have very minimal or no problems. Sps just hasn't been working for me. These pics are from small frags I recently got and a few weeks of polyp extension but slow die off.
The first one has always been there on the rack but has been dieing from bottom. The second I've moved back to the rack after it was in front of my wavemaker flow.
Maybe it was too strong for it's liking or it could have been the addition of filter floss this week to my aquaclear that made things worse.
2nd question .. Can water be too clean?
Any input appreciated! Thanks
