Could be. That is very low which your other coral should see signs of low alk. IMO, this is just a difficult coral to keep and I wouldn't go chasing your numbers for the good of one coral. As long as all others or okay, I'd keep doing what you're doing.

All are fine except him and my bubble has closed a bit but not isn't as closed up

All are great...my bubble seems a tad unhappy but he's slowly reopening. Goni is going on day 8

Don't give up on it mine has been fully closed for over a month , I had no no3 po4 readings on my salifert test kits , iv slowly upped it and in the last week it's started to show signs of coming back

Not fully open by any means but still miles better than It was .... At one point I was gonna bin it
Good luck with yours and hang in there

Here's my other one , I know it's a different type but I take it ....its some kind of Goni , this one iv had for over 6 months and it's never given me any trouble also grown a lot , maybe the other type that we have is a lot more fussy :mad: lol
My Lfs has a few Goni that I like a lot ,a rainbow , a blue and a red
But I'm just not so sure I want the trouble of keeping them well
