I have a 180 gallon with mostly SPS corals. It has 3- 250W 15k Metal Halides and 8 blue t5's I just replaced the bulbs about 2 weeks ago. But I have noticed and this isnt the first time that the arcos flesh will start peeling off. Then in like 3 days it will be white and dead.
it hasnt happen for about 4 months but just yesterday I notice one of the arco's started doing it. Then one I just got Thursday is peeling. Im rly bad about just bring them home and floating them for like 30mins then just puting them in after I put them in coral Rx. Im not sure why this is happening but if anyone has idea please give me some input.
Parameters last I checked like last week- Ca-400 Mag- 1275 Total Alk-3 and the salt level is usally right at 1.025. I know the mag and Ca are a little low and Iv been working on getting them up then planning on dosing Kalc. or adding a Ca reactor.
