Do you think they could be too close together?

Not that I know of... On day it's fine... The next it's not so well. I did a water change last night. But it looks like that made it worse

Not that I know of. Fish look as healthy as can be. But the coral are just stressing like crazy! White stuff coming out of almost every soft coral.

Salinity is 1.024

Could it be your lighting is turning off during the day? Or not coming on at all....?

Its hard to see in some of the pictures, but things arent doing well.

Some of the Birdsnest is bleaching.


Frogspawn and zoas arent opening.




Montipora looks almost completely bleached.




But some other corals are doing totally fine....

You have a frag tank right? You may wanna try moving what is having trouble over there for a bit.

Or as probably the best idea, do a large water change if you haven't yet.

If you are referring to the white tips on the Birdsnest it could be new growth . My montipora also lost some of its color when I switched to LED's but it recovering now.

I don't think it's growth. I know what that looks like and this isn't it unfortunately. And I've had the LEDs for a few months now and the monti has been in the same spot that whole time and always looked orange. Just over night it bleached... So I don't think it's my lights. But thanks for your input

Do a huge water change. Maybe 3 or 4 back to back 25% pwcs. I don't know what's making the coral angry, but lots of fresh clean water has to help, right?
