I've had my 55 gal tank for a bit over a year now. I've had my branching hammer coral for almost 6 months. For the past month, it has been all shriveled up. All parameters are good. Ph 8, ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 5, calcium 540, phosphates 0, kh 161ppm.
I was hoping that all the branches means that it was growing and that's why it was shriveled. At this point I'm at a loss.
It has med-low flow and medium lighting. 8 hours of coralife marine lights and 3 hours of blue led's.
Add strontium and molybdenum and essential elements. Do not add any calcium.
Tank consists of 2 clownfish, yellow tail damsel, yellow watchman, purple dotty back. 3 green chromis, pajama cardinal, hawkish, 2 gobies. Have carpet anemone, rose bubble tip anemone, tube anemone. Several varieties and colors of mushrooms, Duncan's, green apple Capricorn, bubble coral, pulsing Zenia, coral carnation, zoas. Also have emerald crab.
Help!!
