I’ve had this wall hammer for almost 2 years and it’s always been happy and beautiful! Recently it hasn’t been opening up as much as it used to. The tissue is not receding and it will open up about half way throughout he day. All of my other hammers are happy and growing like weeds.

My question is, is this just the process of a wall hammer growing? I started using a Neptune apex and controlled dosing with a trident using ATI Essentials 2 part.

Alk- 8.5
Ca- 450
Mg-1400
NO3- 16ppm
PO4- .1ppm

Gets about 100-150 PAR
