I have a couple of Pavona frags in my tank, the first was bought a year ago, the rest 6 months ago. None of them have grown at all, they don't turn brown, don't bleach, nothing. They're just sitting there. However, my other sps are doing just fine. Some are growing faster than others, but they're growing, even my tricolor Acro. Most lps are doing fine as well.
The Pavonas have been everywhere. At the top, bit lower down, near the bottom, slightly shaded. I make progress pics every now and then, so I'm certain they're not doing anything at all.
Parameters:
Alk: ~ 8.3
Calc: 460
Magnesium: ~ 1700
Phosphates: 1.0
Nitrates: ~ 20
Now, I suspect the answer will be nutrients, and I'm dealing with those. What I do not understand though, is why it's just these that won't do anything at all, while my montis, acro, stylos etc. are doing fine. Any ideas?
