Hello guys,
I have this gamer coral which won’t extend its polyps. Everything else in the tank is opening, but this one is unhappy.
Before it was on weaker flow and I tried moving it but that’s not the cause.
so what happened is that I excidently dropped in salinity 28-29ppt.
To correct it I used salt water as topoff.
Idiot me forgot that my salt (Red Sea coral pro) is already high in stuff, So I ended up with massive surplus of ca and mg.
My parameters today:
Salinity 35ppm
Alk 11 -stable, dosing
Mg- 1590 - approximately, off the chart on my test
Ca -520 - again approx, off the chart
my idea was to just ride it out and let parameters come down naturally since everything else is ok, including hammer next to it.
do you guys think that’s a good idea or should I intervene? Thanks
