I switched from 3 part dosing to Triton about 2 months ago now. Things looked great at the start but have since gone very poorly and im not sure what I can do. Appreciate any help.
Tank: 80 gallon mixed
Alk: 7.95 took a few weeks to get stable but not running very close to 8 consistently
Nitrate: 10ppm
Phos: 0
Running carbon and aluminum pellets on a reactor.
Skimming is dark and thick.
Triton test when starting Triton were all in point, no metals or anything out of good standing.
Salinity: 1.024
Things odd that I've noticed:
- My Cheato is turning pale white under a proven LED grow light.
- my pH swings high 8.1 to low 6ish in a day (might be probe issue?)
Problems:
All my coral such as frogspawn, acan, and hammer are disconnecting from their skeleton. Also I seem to have Cyano appearing now so doing lights out to help stop that from taking over.
Anyone have thoughts on what the issue could be?
Thanks
