Hey guys
I just recieved my new icp test and it has 2 values that are high copper and zink.
How should i aproach this?
Reeftank is a red sea reefer 170, har around 35 types of corals a mized reef, got about 8 sps 15lps.
The oldest sps has started to show kind of like burned undertips and is a bit slimey. The colour is both black and white where the burned areas are.
Got 4 new sps frags and they are doing good some better and some a bit slower growth but no visual side effects.
I run a hydra 26 hd 23 inches above the top coral and a t5 ramp with 4 t5s 2 on each side, hydra is on from 10:30 to 13:30 it peaks 100% all blues 40% whites to 18:00 all blues and slowly ramping down to 21:30.
I installed the t5 ramp 1 month ago and weekly prolongued the light for 1 hour and its now on from 15:00 to 18:00.
Could it be the light or the high zink and copper that burnes the coral?
In the video at 9 seconds you can see the red sps, its most high tip is like grey black whiteish.. thats the problem im seing.
