Good evening fellow Aquarists,
I purchased this frogspawn 5 days ago and I'm starting to get a little worried because it has not yet completely opened up yet like it was at the store. I tested my water 3 days ago and everything was great nitrates, nitrites and ammonia all at 0. Salinity at 1.025. pH 8.1 if I remember correctly. Haven't been able to test calcium or alkalinity though. Could an imbalance in calcium or alkalinity be causing this?
I have this places real close to the top of the 5 gallon Fluval Evo which is supposed to have good enough LEDs to support LPS corals. The water return is on the other side of the tank but pointed directly at the coral, I've tried pointing it away to see if it needed less flow but with no avail.
Any thoughts?
