I've got a Lord that is not happy I have had it about a month now, I have it in about 100 par. Wondering if my nitrate and phosphate being on the high side ticking it off? (Working to bring down phosphate and nitrate) Plan to pull it today and dip it in iodine.

Suggestions?

Photo would help a lot. Why do you think it’s unhappy? From the knowns my first guess would be it needs more light.

Its all deflated, not opening up. Lights will be on in a few hours I can take a picture. For what ever reason just after adding a few corals my hammers started melting, have not seen an issue with other corals except for this Lord.

Lord is in the lower LH side at 150 par, it didn't seem to like that so I moved it to under the Dunkin 2 weeks ago

Looks a little better today, moved back to 125 par

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
