My SPS are bleaching and need some help, here’s the specifics
I have a mixed reef tank, reefer 170 running an T5 hybrid 24” AI hydra with 3 blue+ and 1 coral+. My T5s are on for 5 hours during the top of my light schedule. I run a skimmer and a fuge which is on opposite of my lighting schedule. I run passively in my filter sock carbon (3 tbl spoons)and gfo ( 2 tbl spoons). I dose 2 part CAL and ALK equal parts. I also add acropower 4 mls around 3 time a week. I still get good polyp extension and decent growth but the colors are becoming non existent
My parameters are
Alk 8.0-8.4
Cal 440-450
Salinity 1.025-1.026
Phosphate 0.02
Nitrate .5
Any suggestions? I rented a par meter from BRS and should be here on Wednesday. I don’t feel like I’m blasting them with light but I guess I’ll find out
