Lobo dying

help lobo is dying all my parameters are normal

Tank looks very new. How long has it been running, how long has the coral been in there?

Same question as @Euphyllia97 and also what lighting do you have? When you say parameters are normal, can you be more specific (alk, calc, nitrate, ammonia, salinity)

Welcome to R2R!! Unfortunately that lobo is most likely not going to recover, If you can provide complete details about your system we can help you be more successful going forard.

The parameters are
Calcium: 417
Alk: 8.2
Nitrate:0.2
Ammonia: 0.4
Salinity: 1.24
Tank is 1 month old had to move all the corals to this tank from a older one I run an ai prime 16 on it

With the ammonia level, I think that’s a problem. sounds like the tank is cycling still?

Unfortunately a goner. Some concerns here:
Age of tank?
Type of water (tap, ro, ?)
What test kit(s)?
Water flow method?
Type of lighting?

Yeah parents made me get rid of the older tank so I had to move all the corals

Rodi I use Hanna alk and calcium flow is 2 nano korilla wavemakers one is 425 and the other one is around 250 tank is 1 month old

I think that is your answer then... The tank is not able to take care of your coral. Parameters are probably all over the place and ammonia is killing your lobo.
