actually...i have a few ugly zoas...a SBB princess peach, a gorgonian, some BTAs and a yuma..all doing well. It is just the SPS and LPS i have had zero luck with
I can’t keep lps other than euphyllia. I’d love to get a nice scoly but I’m afraid to try. I have a trumpet coral, which grows quickly for most people, that has stayed as two small heads for the last 3 years, but it hasn’t died at least.

I am starting to lean towards my lighting being the cause. I used to have Radion G5s and I had decent growth. Once I switched...my tank has been a death sentence.

Aren’t you still using the Noopsyches?

That's a lot of par it would seem
I have a apex par meter. The bottom of my tank is now at 115. the mid section now barely breaks 200. (after some recent changes) Unfortunately i have a lagoon..so the difference between top and bottom is diminimis

NooPsyche / T5 hybrid. I dont think it is the lights per se..but most likely the settings.
Bump up your flow, that's usually the limitation in most tanks
