Trouble with LPS

[vetteguy53081]

Did you have LFS test water ?

Ok starting to get very frustrated. I can not keep LPS alive. Parameters are stable (I'll post below) but other then my hammer they all die with in 3-4 weeks. I don't get what I am doing wrong. So far I have list 2 Duncan's both multiple head healthy corals and a very healthy 7 head acan.

Tank 36x18x16
Flow Reefocto varios 4 return
Powerhead gyre 230 I think at 20%
Lighting 2 AI Hydra 26
Alk 8.2-8.6
Cal 420-450
Mag 1250-1300
Nitrate 25
phosphate .03-.08
salinity 1.025
ammonia 0
nitrite 0
ph 8.2

@ReefingBliss liss Hey Did you ever figure out what was going on with your LPS? I’m in the same boat

I was having issues with my lps awhile back. Couldn’t figure it out. Bought one of those poly filters from bio marine. I used it and it didn’t change any colors to indicate there was any metals or containments but shorty after things turned around. It’s just anecdotal but may be worth a shot

I’ll check it out. I’m willing to try anything, it’s driving me crazy. Nothing in my ICP test could explain it either.

I have not. Everything else still doing well. I plan on doing an icp test in the next few weeks.
