Hi All,
Over the last couple of months I have noticed that some of my corals are receding and I can't seem to figure out why. It started with some of my Acan Frags, which have all died, my scoly and a big chalice I have.
They are just slowly withering away.
I have a nanobox led light and two mp40s on opposite end of my 72" tank.
The scoly is on the sand pretty much dead center of the tank and the chalice is very low to the sand all the way to one side. I have dipped the corals in both coral rx and iodine but nothing is slowing the receding. I have alot of other corals in the tank, lps, sps, and softies that are all fine.
I tested my water last night and this was the results.
pH: 8.3
Cal: 440 ppm
Alk: 175 ppm
Mag: 1280
Phos: .02
Ammonia: 0
Nitrate: 0
I dose esv two part daily (40 ml split up 4 times a day).
Could my water be to clean for those corals?
Any ideas or thoughts?
