Hello
I bought a Torch coral from a fish store and then put it in my 20 G tank.
After about 10 hours later in the morning, I see the coral start bleaching. I see white bone on edges of the coral with some transparent residues that fell apart from it (I think this is coral flesh).
First pic : yesterday night
Second Pic : Today morning.
I checked my water conditions. Salinity is 1.0225 And PH is around 6.8
I am planning to add more salt to raise salinity above 1.023, and buy crushed coral to raise PH.
Any Idea what is the main cause for bleaching in few hours?
My question : Will my coral recover and survive from my effort??
Thanks in advance.
