So I am loosing colonies slowly and from the tips down. These corals have been in the system for 6/8 months or more. Not all corals are affected either. My par was checked about 5/6 weeks back at it’s around 200 to 250. I lowered the lamps to get more but have since raised them back to the original place once the tips started to go although the corals did fine with the light lowered for 3/4 weeks. Nothing has improved since raising the lights.
Flow is strong but not flesh tearing strong by any means.
Alk dropped some due to a plugged dosing line to 5.6. It’s usually around 8. It’s now back to 6.6 and slowly returning to 8.
Calc. Is high at 500, turned the dozer off till it lowers some.
Mag is over 1500 and has always been high.
Pho’s. 4
No3 is 3
I turned the skimmer off for a while trying to get nutrients up some.
Every stick starts to turn white at the tip and works right on down.
Any suggestions please?
Jim
