I’m starting to see burnt tips on some of my sps and I’m not sure why
background info
tank is 340 gallons (400 actual water volume) lit by g4 radions and t5s
parameters from today
Alk 8.0
Calcium 447
Mg 1454
Phos .08
Nitrates 12-25ppm (closer to 12)
My parameters have been the same for a year except for my phosphate was .16-.20 which is why I started using rowaphos and nopox about 3-4 months ago which brought it down to .06-.08 now.
Also I skim wet and I dose 12 ml a day of acropower and I run biopellets
my problem started about two weeks ago. I had a WD rtn and then I noticed a few coral now have burnt tips on the ends and I’m worried something bad is about to happen. The coral with the burnt tips start by sliming and then a day or so later the tips turn white and die
just looking for things that might be wrong.
thanks in advance
