Montipora Dying suddenly.

[Anish M]

This is my first post so I hope I'm doing this right but I have a Green Montipora that is Dying and I can't figure out why. My parameters appear to look fine but I was looking for some guidance.

Nitrates 0ppm
Nitrates 0ppm
Ammonia clear!

Thanks in advance!

0 nitrates, it is starving. What are your phosphates?

Like DED65 said need nitrates. But if the pH is correct that is low and for me the dKH is high.

Alkalinity, calcium, phosphate levels?

Also 0, I've started feeding more to fix that

Any other suggestions to get these back up?

There are supplements for Nitrates and Phosphates. I use seachem phosphorus but I have not had to dose Nitrates. Seachem makes both. NeoPhos and NeoNitrate also will work. There are several DIY solutions you can make as well.
