Your tank is shallower than mine. However at that setting you probably don't need to turn the lighting down. Starting on the sand bed for a week is probably enough. Once they get established you can slowly turn it up a little.Out of 10
Yes there is definitely a LOT of flow on tHis coral as I know they enjoy it so nothing builds up in them. The coral is right in the flow path.Don’t think I’ve seen anything about water flow. With high lighting you need lots of water movement or corals won’t be happy. Can cause negative effects.
Yeah, thE coral is already glued in place at top of tank so it can get light and flow…Your tank is shallower than mine. However at that setting you probably don't need to turn the lighting down.

Alright I will feed more. I just know that can cause algaeThen the advice you’ve gotten that it needs nutrients probably will help. Zero nitrates means no food for the coral
I have one right now. Have bought 3.Have you bought frags missing flesh ?
okay. Thank you!Don’t forget that your coral relies on algae itself to grow. It’s one of the difficult things to manage. Yes no nutrients can keep bad algae you don’t like in your tank. But will also stop corals from growing because they need algae too
Just take care of the nutrients. Only change 1 thing at a time and give it 2 or 3 weeks before changing anything else.Okay. I will feed more, lower lights a bit, water change, and see how it goes from there! I will keep u updated.
Ok.Just take care of the nutrients. Only change 1 thing at a time and give is 2 or 3 weeks before changing anything else.
The idea is being able to see the effects of the change, which takes a few weeks. If you change 3 things at once maybe only 1 was beneficial and the other 2 were negative. However you won't have a way to tell what help/hurt.
i see. makes sense. Thx! I am just hoping it works soon cause the coral ain’t looking so hot.The idea is being able to see the effects of the change, which takes a few weeks.

Hope it works out. I would recommend getting the tests mentioned previously before additional coral, especially SPS.i see. makes sense. Thx! I am just hoping it works soon cause the coral ain’t looking so hot.
Let's not forget that zero nutrients in the tank will starve out nuisance algea, but it can lead to so much worse things than algea. I'll take algea over dinos any day.Don’t forget that your coral relies on algae itself to grow. It’s one of the difficult things to manage.

You mean you've never had a frag that died YET. Everyone has corals that die for no apparent reason from time to time regardless of how stable and healthy their tanks are.Don’t mean to flex but I’ve never had a frag that died
This is very true.not sure where you bought it from but it doesn’t look happy at all .
IMO moving frags is stressful on it’s own .
more often moving a unhappy frag will not end well .
How old is the tank ?
