Hi all
I purchased my first lot or SPS corals to try on the 17/4/19 I purchased.....
Stylophora (mint shimmer)
Seriatopora Hysterix (Pink)
The Stylophora has started to extend its polyps. But the birds nest refuses to open up. As it’s my QT tank, I’ve not got as good of a light (it’s a cheap LED light) in my main tank I’ve got Ecotech 15.
I’ve got high flow (or at least what I perceive as high flow)
I’m currently attempting to increase Mg slowly over the next few days as it’s low (1130) which in turn, is having an affect on Ca (380)- unstable. KH (8.1). I’m dosing with Redsea (to get levels up and stable)
Anyone know why and if I can change anything to help?
Thanks
Emma
