what are the ideal parameters for coralline to grow? I just tested the parameters of my tank today..:
PH 8.0
calc 420
amonia 0
nitrite 0
nitrate 0
I dose the following:
Seachem reef buffer for ph, and i think its time i dose that one again. For calc i use caribsea's aragamilk every 3 days, kent iodine once a week, Kent Coral-Vite once a week, and kent's essential elements every 2 weeks. I don't use salt mixes..Tank top offs are done with ocean water.
I have an 80 gal tank, 150lbs lr and the coralline isn't all that great. In fact the 80lbs from lr.com looked a lot better when i first received it. Its lighted by 2x 250w metal halide 14k coralvue(looks clear no blue/purple tint). What can i do to start growing coralline?
