Looks like its internal filaments. Have you made any changes to your tank recently? Doesnt look like it got an infection

i restart tank, because these problem . because i mean that i have some pest in tank who eat them.

May they became hungry , because i dont have nitrate in water ? and didt feed them for long time ?

The white stuff is its innards. What are your water perimeters?

 

[Filip Zebec]

I must confess with shame

Kh4.5 calcium 380
Nitrate 10
Phosphate 0.03

Is that a mis-type? Alk is 4.5. If not it very well may be your problem. It should be 7.8-8.4. You will need to bring it up slowly. No more than 1.0 in 24 hr. A water change of 1/4 to 1/3 is a start.

What test kit are you using?

 

[Filip Zebec]

im using salifert and JBL. I star to raise KH 0.5 daily.

 

[Filip Zebec]

no3 < 5 - tropical test
ammonia < 0.05 - JBL test

problem is when eufillya tray to divide head, then she dye both head

Well your water is outa whack if it is what you say.. water changes are a must. Also, what kind of lighting are you using?

 

[Filip Zebec]

I use diy led

Mine tank are old 1 year and 8 month was all great. Euphillias grow very well.

The water perimeters must have slowly been decreasing. Most lps and soft corals will acclimate. But alk that low is well in the acidic range. If your alk was that low you also have magnesium and calcium balance issues. It will be hard to keep alk levels steady until it is in sync with magnesium and calcium levels. So other than water changes which add magnesium and calcium. You should also be increasing with alk supplements. If using 2 part. Discontinue the calcium part until alk is in sync with current calcium level.

Bi-weekly water changes will keep perimeters stable.
