Are these goners?

For the most part yes.
It is hard to bring them back from that condition.

Jesus never had a chalice problem in my life till now. Don't even know what caused it. Only thing I know is a bacteria bloom is going on

How new were the frags?
I lost a whole order for no reason but maybe shipping stress

 

[whatchamacallit]

I've had them for a few months, and were growing alright. I'm did bring them over to my new tank about a month or so ago. But my Zoas and other chalices seem alright besides some loss of color

 

[Shep]

Yea, sadly I would have to agree that they are goners.

Lack of nutrients possibly

 

[whatchamacallit]

Yeah I thought it was a lack of nutrients as well, so I started feeding oyster feast and Red Sea a&b. And leaving the skimmer off for 12 hours after. Only problem with doing that is making the bacteria worse lol lose lose. Maybe I should just hold out for a bit with the bacteria then send me water in for some testing.

 

[twilliard]

Triton test will show a lot of info besides no3 not sure if you use them or not

 

[whatchamacallit]

I currently don't use anyone lol I just wish they were all cheaper for the testing

+1 new tank. Maybe have to feed more often till the water gets to Lps liking.

 

[kbourque]

Are you carbon dosing and what's your nitrate at? How old is the tank.

 

[twilliard]

Increasing feedings can bring on other issues like elevated po4 and algae.
Check no3 and po4 before changing to increased feedings.

 

[whatchamacallit]

Yeah I'm definitely not going to over feed, that'll wreck my tank with the bacteria and my fish would die from no oxygen. Tank water parameters are at 0, but I feed Red Sea a/b every night to make up for it
