@bubbaque what's your thoughts?

I seen your thread and I thought the same thing Diesel said. Your numbers seem spot on. Unless your throwing out some crazy high par numbers I’d think you have plenty of nutrients.

When I get coral and it is paling out I move it down and it seems to help. It seemed to happpen the same time you added t5 but that don’t seem like enough to pale them.

I remember a thread a long time ago where @rossco had some sudden paling and he had a crack in his heater if I remember correctly. Maybe check your heater.

lol I don't even have a heater. I don't think that amount of tin in the ICP is enough to do any harm. I don't honestly know though

Im of no help then, lol. I see paling and I think too much light or not enough nutrients.

Sorry I just wanted to tag everyone that helped me in the thread. Pale SPS, getting progressively worse... what about this??
A rusty vortech

 

[Diesel]

Has nothing to do with it.
I had 2 Vortech that did that and talked to Patrick and the tech dept from EM.
I have a email as well as it says what kind of metal they use.

Btw, contact EM tomorrow and they will send you a new wetside.

Really? completely unrelated?

 

[Diesel]

The magnets are made from Neodymium, and that shouldn’t have a effect.
But what generation is your Vortech.

@Diesel that is very interesting to know. Thanks for sharing that. I'm just going on the assumption that all rust/corrosion is not good in a reef tank
