    Dying coral and some look good??

    I might think the tank temp might be stressing them out. 87 is a bit high. Most tanks are kept between 77 and 80. Not totaly sure that the temp would completly do it but it is def not helping the situation. If you are using a coralife digital stat to check temp they are usually off by 2 to 3...

    I will be the guinea pig

    would not say I have achieved totally what I was looking for just yet. It's starnge because my corals were all doing well prior to this. Colors weren't as sharp as they are now but I have high hopes that they will look even better once I achieve the ultra low nutrient state. Once I feel I am...

    I will be the guinea pig

    Kalkwaser is dosed dialey via a drip method. Tropic marin reef actif is used when I do my water change, three quarter teaspoon for roughly 90 gal. Elos pro skimmer and omegas are dosed nightly as a source of nutrients and food for corals. Prodibio bio optim and bio digest is used every other...

    Adding Potassium

    I started using the brightwell potassium not to long ago. I use tropic marin pro which potassium mixes low at 310ppm. Natural seawater runs around 390 to 410. So what I've been doing is bringing up my my mixing water by adding 40 ml to my ten gal of water. It's been working for me. All my blues...

    dendro

    I have both dendro and duncan. I did target feed them at one time but I've switched over to broadcast feeding my tank using elos omega and elos pro skimmer. As far as placement they are not photosynthetic, as previously stated. Try not to blast it directly with water flow. It will force coral to...

    I will be the guinea pig

    I ment I am using Elos pro skimmer and omegas to get myself away from feeding coral food. I do not want the left over to sit in my tank and go through the breakdown cycle of what was not eaten.

    I will be the guinea pig

    It is really hard to say which one is having the effect, but I will say that when I used everything up to the time I started the prodibio I really did not see much other than growth. The original reason I started using these things were to get my colors to look better. I would assume everything...
