Weird growth?

[not_eman209]

I’ve noticed this growing on these. I’ve been battling ultra low nutrients, no matter how much I feed or dose brightwell neo phos or neo nitro, they are always around 0.01.
I’m waiting for reagent for calcium and magnesium.

All the spots?

I'd be inclined to dip in revive or similar, that seems quite odd.

Are you running a rollermat or filter socks?

Also most times a full tank shot under white lights help tell a bigger story.

Yes roller mat, skimmer, and a brs two stage reactor, and I’ll get pics in white light tomorrow, lights are off already.

Sorry for the late response, here they are under whites.

I may have same / similar coral:

I suspect you may be over filtering with roller, skimmer and two stage reactor.

I only use skimmer and GAC in a mesh bag (2 tablespoons for 60 gal and I change 1/2 every 2 weeks).

The flesh on your picture looks deflated, tells me the coral is hungry.

My suggestion, take the roller off line for week or three. Try to feed some type of coral food, reef roids (not a lot). Not sure what you have in the reactor but maybe reduce the content.

You can consider dosing trace elements like Tropic Marine A and K. Again try it for a month and see if things improve, dose the minimum recommended dose. I find less is more…

Good luck,
