A couple of my LPS corals are losing colour and can’t figure out what is causing it.
I am experiencing an ammonia spike (of 1 mg/l) in a semi established tank. Aprox 4 months old. Completely cycled. All other corals seem to be happy. Were losing colour prior to detected spike
both coral were on substrate until colour loss now moved to halfway up tank. (Moderate/high light
parameters are:
salinity- 1.026
Temp- 27 deg celsius
Ammonia- 1
Nitrate- 10
Alk- 9.5
Ph- not sure
Phos- 0.04
Mag- 1380
Cal- 400
photos attached, see the “browning” colour in both coral, when bought both were super deep and saturated in colour.
any help will be greatly appreciated!!
