Quick update on the WWC corals - sad to say that the chalice is all but dead at this point. I’ve moved him around a few times trying various lighting but I think it’s a mostly lost cause.
The mushrooms doing really well, which is encouraging but I don’t feel great about any of the other corals right now. Concerned that I may be seeing a Dino outbreak starting after my most recent water change so I’m gonna let a week or two go by before starting them again.
My nutrients certainly haven’t bottomed out, NO4 is at around 10 and PO4 is around .1-.2 hard to tell on Salifert kit. I am going to wait a day or so to retest those but those were the readings prior to my WC on Friday. I’m trying to knock down my PO4 cause I’m worried it’s creeping up.
Im sending out another triton analysis to see what’s going on. My major elements have been consistent per the trident. Alk has been hovering between 8.1-8.5, CA 520s, Mag 1295. PH hovers in the low 8s and rarely dips below 8 and never goes above 8.3.
