Either then nitrate 20 po4 0.08. Everything seems normal. The scoly is in the tank now for 1mth + and has improved abit. But still far off from how it used to look. Anyone have any idea why is this happening ? Or what I can do to regain the health n colour?. Been feeding it pellets at nite every 3 days

I would feed once a week somtimes over feeding can be a issue or maybee just 2 times a week. Get nitrate to 5. What temp salinity you have phosphate? Do you use rodi for water change what salinity. I hear they like the temp more around 77 78 dagree F

I've had my scoly about a month now, exact type, bleeding apple. I feed mine a nice hunk of mysis every other night or so when it has its feeders out. I've also heard spectrum is super important for them because they will change their color drastically depending on lighting.
