Not sure this me being paranoid but bit worried about few new corals i picked up from LFS at weekend.
1 x Purple plating Monti
1 x GPS
1 x Duncan
1 x Zoa's
Before i purchased the new frag i had LFS do a full water tests to check Alk and Ca and Mg and they said it was ok apart from Mg was little on low side.
Water results:
Ca 415
PO4 0.03
Mg 1350
PH 8.0
Temp 25c
ALK 6.5 dKH
The Monti and GSP have lost almost all there colour and not looking good
The Duncan looked like this when it came out the bag i spent a while checking each of them before i dipped them.
And the Zoa's look fine they been opening and responding to a feed. all my other corals are all ok. only thing i can think that might have happened is the LFS put them all in one bag for journey home. i didn't think anything of it at the time but looking at the Duncan and the edges of the GSP look like they might have stung each other in the bag on the way home. wondering if Monti got in middle of it and got stung by both of them.
I've moved them to a shaded spot in the tank and placed them were there's a little less flow to see if can help them recover
Anyone offer any advices
