Sps questions

[Thomasj616]

I have a 125 gallon with a 60 gallon sump. I run a combo of led and t5 lighting. I have great luck with lps coral I have numerous hammers tourchs frog spawns and many mushrooms that all do well. I've tried sps a few times with no luck. I've tried birds nest, they bleached out quickly. A few different montis they lasted for a few months but slowly died off. What am I doing wrong here please help

Hi Todd! Me and Todd are thinking the same thing. Your problem is probably in your water chemistry. You'll want to monitor ALL your numbers regularly so you know when something is off, like a spike in Alk for instance. With that in mind can you post your values for all your tests? Alk, mag, cal, phosphate, nitrate.
