My tank is fairly new(2 months old) but I keep all my parameters in line carefully: pH=8.3,Ammonia,Nitrates,nitrates =0, dKh=8.5, Ca= 470mg/L,temp=82F,doing water changes every other week,while topping off with Ro/DI water.
It's a 55 gal with aqua C 180,80Lbs LR and 80 of "live"sand bed; lighting is 4*54 T5,two 10k two actinics
Yesterday,I noticed a branch of my beloved coral starting to contract and darken a bit;got scared but did not want to overreact.
This morning,this is what I saw.
What is it?
what's the likely root cause and can I salvage any of the coral?
Thanks in advance for your help!
