Tooth Coral

I found this link on it. Maybe it will help. What type lighting do you have?

 

[Jspires688]

150w metal halide

 

[hackteck]

how long has it been under this lighting

 

[Jspires688]

I bought it from a guy who had it for two years under 250 w halides

 

[melosu58]

It probably just has to get used to the new lighting.

What's your alkalinity at?

 

[Jspires688]

I don't have alk test I need to get one I have had this coral for a month and it has been fine till now

Low alk can cause mass death in corals, saw it last month. Like 5 large Lps colony's melted before my eyes. Wasn't my tank.

I went to the only local lsf which unfortunately is petco they only had a phosphate test I tested it and it's .25ppm
