I have just a couple SPS that arnt their true colors. Some of them have stn and some are just a pale color. More than half my sps have good colors though. my tank is 100g I have 2 AI hydra 26 about 15 inches from water. I have been ramping them up to around 95 to 100 percent for over 2 months. My parameters are..
Cal-470 salifert test
Mag-1440 salifert test
Alk-8.5 Hanna checker
Phos-0.0 Hanna checker
PH-8.0 salifert test
Should I cut off my ROWAphos to let my phos jump up a little?? I also dose reef energy A&B everyday too. If you guys have anymore questions or can help I would appreciate it. Thank you!
 
Yeah I guess I'll cut off the rowaphos and feed the fish more to get the phos up.
 
I have always found that slightly detectable levels of phosphate help. I also advocate feeding the fish a lot, doing sizable water changes on a weekly basis and skimming heavily.
