Strangest thing I have every seen in the 15 years I have been doing salt water tanks....
My 90 gallon tank back was covered with coraline and I have never had an issue growing it everywhere. Have to scrape from the sides all the time.
I woke up this morning and over 75% of the coraline on the back wall is gone. Not flaked away and lying in the sand, just plain GONE.
Checked my params and can't find anything different.
Ammonia: 0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 5
Phos: .05
CA: 420
ALK: 9
MG: 1350
Tested with Lamotte, API and Saliphert, all close enough to each other to confirm accuracy.
I use 2 part solution with a medical dual doser pump, and nothing has changed in the tank for a long time. I am a creature of habit and test params every week, and any time something doesn't look right and the params have been that same for a long long time.
Lighting is 8 blub T5 on a 12 hour schedule with 10 hours of total white light.
Corals and fish seem to look fine.
I am not going to stress over it, just curious if anyone has ever seen this before.
