Need help with scoly.

[Maxx Yung]

I have 3. Feed twice a month, but right now one of them is losing color and not showing feeding response. Another one is beginning to grow small. Help? Started feeding twice a week rn reef roids. Temp is 82 (yes ik it's high but we are hitting 100+ temps even with ac in the house)

Salinity: 1.029 (bit high for me)
Phosphate Nitrate: ??? I don't test either I do 25g water change every 2 weeks. SPS no issue so I don't test them.
Alk mg CA: 10.2 1460~ 390~

you need to test pho and nitrate. it’s happened me before, move your scoly to shade area bc your lights is too strong.

3 Radions 4 Pro at 50-60%. Lack of carbon reactor changes so probably yellow water will reduce intensity. Is light at 50% too strong?

leave your lights alone, move your scoly to shade area, and colors will come back. it takes my almost 2 months to recover the colors.

Wow. I will do. It's already on sandbed. Should I make half scoly in light and half out?

freeze few bottles of water and throw in the sump, bring the temperature down.
