Reefing community HELP!!!
I am still new to saltwater, been doing it for about two years. I have tried hard to learn as much as possible in these two years. However, I still can't seem to keep SPS alive. What am I missing? I will take any and all advice I can get.
I have a 180-gallon tank with three MP40's all at 75% reef crest mode. I have two ATI LED/T5 Combos. I rented a PAR meter from BRS, and at the top of the rockwork where the SPS is, it is between 250-400 PAR. I use RODI water and Brightwell salt. My parameters are
Salinity: 1.025-1.026
CAL:445
ALK:8.6
MAG:1410
Nitrates:4.0
Phosphates:0.18
PH: 8.0
Full tank shot, and Sump shot below.
